We’ve actually been talking about marriage the last few months. He is moving to the UK next year so we’ve got some big decisions to make by then..!
It’s really nice that we can talk about it out loud now and it’s not just a fantasy in my head I’m not sharing with him.

I want to spend the rest of my life with the one that I love more than anything. BLCC<3
There is more than one way to reconcile. I have decided to commit to a long and difficult journey.

i dnt know if i have time tht will agree
n i dnt know if distance will stop me
most likely , they will
but i knw i have the love
I hope to marry my first boyfriend. His name is Doink. I met him about fifteen years ago. I was fifteen. He was fourteen. Our relationship was very…mathematical. I searched for him on the internet. I hope to see him in the spring.
he found me after 30 years and I agreed to see him. We had a drink, ok 5 drinks and we left the bar, one thing led to another and we ended up making love. I love him so much, I can’t keep him off my mind, but he has yet to reciprocate.
I was down in melbourne for a wedding last weekend (of a close family friend) and I’m just about ready to get married TOMORROW! Is there a word that means ‘clucky’ but in relation to getting married not to having kids? Cuz that’s what I am. Muriel’s wedding syndrome :P
I’m such a girl too – i was fighting back tears and a runny nose all the way through the service and then again during the bridal waltz. And I’ve spent all week practicing my own twirling around my room. LOL
Ah for a happy ending!
my bf D’s best friend just proposed to his girlfriend of 2.5 years. When D was telling me this it turns out that he reckons his friend is doing it for all the wrong reasons; it just seemed like it was something on his ‘to do’ list.
D is worried that they haven’t been going out long enough.He said “it’s 2007 not 1760!” and “They’ve never lived together before and I’ve seen even the strongest of relationships fail after five years”. It was really interesting to get his take on things.
I had always thought to mself before D & I started going out that I would want to live with someone before i got married and that i wouldn’t get married before going out with someone for at least 4 years. I dunno… just a personal thing I felt in view of my parents relationship (they got engaged after going out for 6 months). That scares me a bit actually bacuse although D & I have been friends 2 years we’ve only been going out almost 6 months, and I can’t imagine us being engaged at the moment (not that I don’t envisage it for ‘one day’). It’s far too soon, we’re still getting to know each other. As much as my parents have gotten through a lot (25th anniversary tomorrow actually) i get the feeling they got married without really knowing each other and the whole thing was a giant confronting experience for them; some of the things you find out about people after being with them for a while and after living with them which might otherwise be deal breakers would be challenging to suddenly discover in your husband/wife.
I know I’m young and have no idea about these things yet, but i’m all for waiting in relationships. Being in one is about learning about you and the other person and how well you deal with things together, not just about getting a ring on your finger.
Perhaps though, I’m able to have that kind of a perspective growing up now because these days it’s a lot easier for women not to need a ring on their fingers to feel secure or successful in their lives..?
I’d be really interested to get everyone’s opinions.
about getting dressed up and pretending to go house-hunting in some of the nice suburbs we’ve jokingly said we’d love to live in one day. I’d been thinking this and can’t believe i got up the courage to say it (i don’t want him to think i’m ready to choose curtains just yet and scare him off comepletely!) but i did it in a joking way and he played along – saying that we could take his parents car (very nice red e-type jag!) and make bids at auctions…
I wonder what he’d think if he knew i had this goal..! I added it before i’d met him actually – but now he’s on the scene it’s definately not a goal i’d turn down seeing come true one day .. we’re still young yet.
