So, I just proposed to my girlfriend.
And she said yes.

It wasn't too unexpected, but, still...


Looks like I'm getting married. :)

10. :P That's basically how she knew me to begin with.
Knew me as BGL for quite awhile before I came out here....

17. Nah, didn't set a date. But, we've talked about it quite a bit
and it seems like we're going to have the ceremony in California.

The date? Dunno...I'll let you guys know, though, if you'd like to be there. :)

40. My husband asked me how I would like to be Mrs. T.
His last name beginning with a T.

And I told him I wasn't about to change MY name. So that ended that. He is still Mr. T., and I am still riderinthestorm (or something like that!)

We're coming up on 20 years next year.

Congrats!

29. My wife and I lived together for more than a year before marriage too.
I still find there's a meaningful difference.

28. Thanks, Midlo.
I asked her if she could put up with my BS before I sprung the question.

She said she always has. :)

Just like you guys.

34. BS? Are you kidding? Did you ask her if she could
put up with your succinct and intelligent rants against the BFEE?

Because if she can't, boy....do I have a girl for you....no, it isn't me, lucky you.

36. Let me tell you.
Marrying my husband and having my family was the best thing I ever did. I wish you all the happiness that we have.

:sappy:


Sorry, but we are really happy. In spite of school, activities, work, etc.

38. That's amazing. I'm happy for you,
as well. NoNameNoSlogan and I had a conversation about this a couple of weeks ago.

He/she seems to be doing quite well, even being free. But extremely happy.
