A gay man has proposed marriage to this
partner through a Change.org petition.
Jose Juan Capo of San Francisco,
California used his employer's website for social change to propose
marriage to Brian Key, his boyfriend.
“I love you, Brian Key,” wrote
Capo, a software engineer. “I love your smile, your handsome
looks and your smart and witty personality. I have loved you for
almost 25 years now.”
“You and I have a very supportive
relationship. We have established homes for ourselves in the places
where we have lived. We have shared each other's family and have had
the great fortune to know many fun and caring friends.”
“We love waking up together every
morning. We have grown wiser together and we wish to continue
growing older together. We belong together.”
“I cannot think of anyone with whom I
would rather spend the rest of my life. I am lucky to be your loving
partner and I cannot wait to be your husband. Please say 'yes'!”
As of Saturday, more than 500 people
had electronically signed the petition.
According to gay glossy The
Advocate, Key has seen the petition and has agreed to its
terms.
