I had only two offers of marriage in my life, and I refused both.

I had only two offers of marriage in my life, and I refused

Summary

This quote indicates that the person speaking had only been proposed to two times but declined both offers. It suggests that they were selective in their choices and unwilling to settle for just any marriage proposal. This may indicate a desire for a fulfilling and meaningful relationship, rather than simply settling for the sake of getting married. It reflects a strong sense of independence and possibly a belief in waiting for the right person to come along.
