They were standing around the bike with a depressed look on their faces. The guy checking the bike made a comment: "Man I love bikes but I would most probably kill myself (male rationalization in full effect). But you know (here it comes) how it is once you get married and have kids you can forget about bikes."

I think I even saw a small tear in the corner of his eye when he was revving the bike.

My reply was that I dont know how "it" is and that I dont want to get married and be free instead. The looks on their faces made me realize why I'm gmow. We shared a moment of silence and we all understood each other for that brief moment.
