Then you're probably not going to like them.

I don't see why I wouldn't get along with her brother...I'm with him quite a bit...drink with him all the time. Her best friend would have to snap for us to get into it. She's always calm and pretty nice actually. She was actually pretty sick last month for about a week...ended up getting me sick. Like I said...if I feel like something isn't right between us, I'm not going to do it.

good luck III.

I hope it works out and you live happily evAR after.

I just want to urge caution as a voice of reason.

I never understood the whole 'engagement' thing. She gets a ring to show her GFs and they decide whether you're worthy or not?

IT's FOREVER. So why wait? Just go to the courthouse and be done with it.

And don't even get me started on how much people waste at their weddings...

My wife to be moved in with me in the middle of March and we were married in the middle of April.

Thanks...I don't blame you for telling me to be careful. I am risking a lot for this.

I bought the ring last weekend. I am going to ask her tonight at the place we first met.

Dude - best of luck. I mean that.

Thanks. I haven't really been nervous about it till tonight. The more I think about it the worse I get.

Good luck.

Good luck, Mr. Dunit35. Take lots of pictures.

Seriously, what a momentous occasion. A real, significant change in your life's path. I wish you nothing but the best.

Together for four years. Lived together for four years (almost). She "moved out" more than a dozen times during that period. Engaged for about a year before taking the plunge.

Dated 8 weeks. Engaged. Married 6 months later.

Going on 15 years.

Why be nervous? You think she might say no? :p

So how did it go?

Good luck.

ROFL.... Go luck.

ok...so here's what happened.

We got to my brothers house (place we first met). I told her I had to go to the bathroom. I went and got the ring and my sister in law asked her if she would turn the light on (so we could get her to get up). Well when she turned around I was standing behind her (my sister recorded it). The first thing my fiance said was "oh god" and started crying...and then she said yes. I have never been so nervous before.

Oh man, you really dunit now.

We started dating in September of '97 and I moved in with her a month later. Lived together for nearly four years before getting hitched. We pretty much worked through our issues long before the wedding.

Congradulations! All the best to ya!
If you're drinking right now then... cheers!

So young. Good luck!

good story.


get a prenup

congrats, just remember life is a yo yo and it gets even bumpier when there's two attached to the same string. but as long as you work together the yoyo will continue to rise.


that was good, deep in many different ways, and still light hearted. i should drink more often.

The cute couple!

Congrats!

I hope the date of your wedding is well before whatever drugs she is on wear off.

She has an evil smile.

Man alot of my friends are starting to do the marriage thing. 2 of my best friends just got engaged, another one is getting married soon. And I have about 6 other friends getting married as well.

Wish them all the best of luck, but I am enjoying my bachelor hood. No nags right now, just doing the college lifestyle.

HAHAHAHAH.... oh man, that is funny.

I'm reminded of that Metallica song...


SAD

BUT

TRUE...

Congrats, nonetheless... FWIW, you should show that to your fiance ... that is funny.

Why not get married and just not live with each other? Then you don't have to deal with all the BS

Next item on your list... start planning a kick ass bachelor party "weekend". Yes, make it a 2-3 extended getaway and have it about 4-5 weeks before your actual wedding.

Enjoy.

My wife and I dated for about 1-1/2 years before moving in together and we got engaged soon after moving in. We lived together for about 2 years while finishing up college before getting married.

Yes. Do have the bachelor party at least a week before and give yourself a day or two to recover. I've seen a couple of people hung over for their weddings and it isn't pretty.

I had my party a week early and it took me two days of recovery to get back to my routine. Luckily my wife was already in Des Moines preparing things while I was here in KC having fun.

WE had bee ngoing out for two years, and we moved in together becasue we were each paying $700 for crap apartments, and significantly improved our living situation. She said, "Just because we're moving in together, don;t think this is goign t olet you postpone us getting engaged"
I got into this really intense debate about "the right pacing and time" and she got really sad. But She didn't know I ahd already bought the ring and popped the question the next week, at Christmas.
That was 11 years ago. Still going strong.

Everyone has their own timeline. Just make sure you're ready. I knew when i felt sincerely interested in her happiness, and would take time to work out differences. With previous girls, if it got too intense, I'd bail out. A lot of that had to with feeling she felt the same way.
