Are you asking?

Lolly and I were briefly married (that didn't work out...she was a shrew), and TOFKA keeps asking me, but I don't know if she can handle me.

Depends...how much life insurance do ya have

When I "proposed" (our getting married was kind of a given...regardless of how I truly felt), I had the ring for awhile. Since I knew she'd been wanting marriage since our third month of dating (*sigh*)...I just decided to try and make it surprising. So after an extremely hard day at work teaching--kids horrendous, parents giving her hell, other teachers, etc, etc--she came back to the apartment in a huge bad mood. Was complaining and whining and such all over the place, I didn't even talk...just let her vent for like 20 minutes straight. She couldn't even stand still, had to keep walking around.

Then, when it seemed like there was a break in her anger and venting, I walked her into the hallway (I had picked out the perfect spot to present her the ring...I wanted the light to hit the diamond just right), and said "I know you've had a rough day and you're angry...but I just wanted to ask you something...will you marry me?". I showed her the ring as I asked...and she broke down and started crying...and stopped venting...lol

Anyway, there ya go...

I've proposed twice, the second was accepted. I told her that there is only one thing that I would change about her, her last name.

oooh I like that!!!!

CoJones said:

I couldn't say that at the time...my ex's last name was Dumm, and she would have thought I was being serious.

Byron said:

No wonder she was so eager to get married lol

Byron said:

That's both funny and cute.

Ocean said:

Thanks, she reminds me of it whenever I suggest something for her

CoJones said:

Ocean said:

Hmm... By jove, I think you're right!!

Byron said:

Let me guess...she kept ur last name lol

Ocean said:

Um, yeah she did..

Only did it once.



I'll never do it again.

And the how?

oh, the how.....

I slipped the ring on finger while she was sleeping, I had breakfast ready and gave a sincere romantic proposal in our home.


She rewarded me by losing it one night while she was out with an ex boyfriend behind my back.


Never again.

Per the Norm, Ocean, you have yet to answer your own thread. C'mon now

Ocean said:

By the way, it's "to" not "too"...lol

I've lost count!

Of course, it's only ever from althom.

Still waiting. *crickets chirping*

Caligula said:

Byron said:

Yeah, but I don't count it, since you didn't even dignify me with an answer.

jerseykrs said:
