"She's forgetting rule number 7, which is, "Don't take this insulting set of conditions around what is supposed to be your own heartfelt and personal expression as indication that I'll be a self-absorbed and selfish shrew-wife."
Now I want wedding plinko to be a thing.
1. Not ask for my father's blessing
2. Not really make it a complete surprise, since we'd been ring shopping for months. I mean, his timing was excellent, but it wasn't a "complete surprise."
3. Not use any part of my name.
4. Not get down on one knee.
5. Not have someone catch it on camera.
6. Not make sure my nails were done.
He also didn't have a ring... Should I be questioning the validity of my marriage?!?
Shit. Do-over?
I've defiantly been doing this wrong. I want a redo with an art photographer, stunning location, and a puppy and/or kitten with a Tiffany emerald cut diamond tied round its neck.
"Please know that the more romantic your proposal, the more likely you are that you'll get divorced. I've seen it a million times. Some guy stages an elaborate proposal that includes hiding the ring at the top of a fucking restored Ferris Wheel that the bride rode as a child, and the couple ends up divorced nine months later. Meanwhile, the guy that proposes using a discarded cockring after the HPT comes back positive stays married for eight decades."
1. H asked after the fact because, as the person he wanted to marry, he wanted me to know first.
2. Proposed when I came for a visit while he was gone for the summer. He'd also vaguely asked my opinion on rings so I was pretty sure it was coming.
3. He didn't use my full name.
4. He forgot to get down on one knee.
5. No one was there to get it on camera.
6. We'd been hiking all day and so I was sweaty and fairly gross. Pretty sure I had dirt under my nails and they certainly weren't done.
I already married him, so I can't call it off.
2. We'd picked out rings together, so no surprise.
3. We may have used each other's full name.
4. We were sitting on the bus.
5. It's possible someone caught it on camera, not sure.
6. My nails are rarely done.
2. Not a surprise at all, we share our bank accounts and worked on the ring together and decided when we would become "officially" engaged
3. I think he may have? Honestly can't remember
4. Don't think he did, don't mind either way
5. Was in the bedroom, would have been odd if someone was in there with us
6. They were done, but only because they are always done
Shit, I will have to tell him we need to redo the proposal. And since his family weren't happy that he didn't ask my father for PERMISSION I guess he should do that as well.
Well if that ain't the most practical thing I've ever seen, I never knew something could be overly laborious AND totally fucking uncomfortable!!
I love this one, particular after that thread yesterday!
Just checked the website of the catering hire firm I'm using and chair hire starts at 1.30 GBP and goes up to (gasp) 2.35 GBP for the ultra trendy Chivari chairs including a free seat pad to match your colour. Or do what @OurWildKingdom is doing and borrow them for free!
But please don't ask your guests to sit on a cow's dinner.
I was in the middle of my office and dying at this.
