I got down on one knee on a beach somewhere to the east of Pensacola and presented her with a printed out copy of the BAH pay table.  :)

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Who did a pre-nup? I DID.

There were no nups when I got married at 26.  Oddly enough, there weren't after I got divorced either.

Edit: Then I moved and left her there.  :P

My bride got to wipe my ass for nine months as a present. I am so sentimental.

She is still waiting for me to propose. :D I told her she would dump her boyfriend and marry me. I bought her the ring and put it on display on my dresser, told her she could put it on whenever she was ready. She dumped the boyfriend, moved in with me and 6 months later we were married. :wub:








16 years happily married. I've been happy, she's been married.  :lol:

When that time comes, my plan is to invite her on a date to do the taxes, and then mention offhand how much money we would save if we were married.  Hopefully she'll get the hint.

:lol:

Enjoy eternal bachelorhood. :hug:

Enjoy eternal poverty.  :P

It's basically how my Scottish co-worker and his girlfriend have come to the conclusion to get married, after all (that and inheritance laws). They've been together for 10 years now and hadn't intended to get married, ever.

It accidentally slipped out at a company Christmas do when he was very, very drunk. His colleague overheard and made him get down on one knee and make me a ring using the foil from a beer bottle. He was sick on the way home.

The next day I assumed he was too drunk to mean it and he couldn't remember what my answer was so we didn't mention it!
