......i wont include any views on marriage.. .i only legally married once...we were 19. ..we were standing at a phone booth in west toronto at around 10 pm.. .my gf was on the phone telling her parents that we were about to move in together.. .she turned to me and said''they say they will disown me if we dont get married first''... . i said ''so lets get married''.. .she smiled and put the phone to her ear and said ''we're getting married'' and hung up.......... not a great story.....but i'd like to hear yours
Back in the day, I told my then live-in that I wanted to have a baby...so if he didn't want to be the father, he needed to let me know - so he could move out, and I'd find another donor. He laughed and went nowhere. Forward 2 months...he is jail (for yet another DUI, his hobby back then) and has me to "meet" him at the court-house, where he got them to assign him to clean-up (LOL) duty...and son was conceived in the law-library. Forward 1 month (still in jail) and I'm telling him I'm pregnant and so happy I'm about walking on air. He proceeds to TELL ME we WILL be getting married. I say...are you sure...I'm not certain (even tho' I did love him). He said he would call my mother (living across the state at that time) and that is ALL it took! We were married the next day, April 1st - April Fool's Day. And I got to hand it to him - he arranged it all from jail. (There, at that county jail, he was like Big Man on Campus.) I just had to meet him at the Justice of the Peace at the courthouse. ^maybe not a great story; but an original one, I bet.
so it didn't work out, rollingalong? i proposed to my girl in a park near our apt. got a ring, got on one knee pretty typical for a proposal i guess
Well...we were sitting in his cramped little bedroom a few years ago and he oh-so-romantically asks, "So, it doesn't bother you that we're just going to get married...and I didn't do any fancy proposing junk?" and I told him it didn't. Haha. Now I kinda wish he would, it'd be nice to see one romantic gesture out of him. lol
My current, and most serious beau, had been legally married for all but the past few months out of a couple year relationship. I am pretty sure there will be no proposal. Well, that's not completely true. He's been saying we should get married for awhile, right after I sign a prenup so he could continue to collect his dependent money from the AF, let me do the grocery shopping at the commissary, and so we could hopefully move to Europe. Quite the romantic. I guess I knew what I signed up for, but I can't say it hasn't been a little hurtful.
turns out i am definitely not the only one that failed to get romantic at proposal time...there is some freshly married posters here how'd it happen?
My husband and I had talked about marriage for a while with him being in the military and shit... So about 4 months ago, he actually said to me "I feel this need to be sure you're ok for the rest of your life. I feel like its a promise I have to keep to your father." So, in July, we got married
I'm thinking something along the lines of..."Hey bitch, wanna get hitched" edited to add.... that is, if I was planning on thinking about that... lol
Me and my girlfriend were trying to do a long distance relationship thing back in 2001 when I was 19. I was stationed in Savannah Ga and she was stuck in Illinois. She drove the whole way to be with me and I risked getting in trouble trying to hide her in my barracks. I did get in trouble eventually so I went on leave and we drove back to Illinois and I went to the place we first met and I proposed and married the next day in front of a few family and friends... Then we later celebrated with a kegger that night. Here's the kiss. And the after party... That was about 10 years ago.
"Hey, whore, make me a fucking sandwich. Oh yeah, and marry me so I don't have to pay child support anymore" :love:
I'm not married, but my parents story is a lil funny. My parents had been dating for about 5 years, when finally my mom said "that's it, if we're not going to put a wedding ring on my finger, I'm out" so my dad said "bye!". A few weeks later he found out that my mom was going on a date with a guy he knew at the theatre he worked in and he was livid! A few days after he picked her up from her house and they drove around and he said "so you wanna get married, eh? Okay. Let's get married." And that's how he proposed!!! And they are still together for over 35 years. <3
my parents just celebrated 43 years ..then my mom almost died...then now they're back to the regular old bickering and arguing about the stupidest shit you can imagine... life is good
i just sent a group text to everyone in my phone saying "i love you, will you marry me." me and grandma are set to marry in october.
