Just a EOI, how some people have asked there partners if they will marry them, and enjoy a happy life together. Im sure there will be some romantic and funny replies.
Thanks Simon |

I just would think that breaking up would be hard enough without having to go through the legalities of it all. Not to mention things often get quite heated during the divorce so its possible to come out of it all with a sour taste in your moutn. Might seem a bit negative but you can do the ceremony and all that without actually having it on paper. And as for kids. I just dont have the patience for them so it would be rather unfair to have them when i dont want them. And after all this some chick reckons i would be a good dad lol. Glad she f**ked me over before i had a chance to find out. (PS. this is after i yelled out of my car window at some parent who let their kid wander the street by themselves) |

however it is far better if there is a split that there are no kids. So until your ready to commit and take a chance..enjoy the SINGLE life.

True. Personally, I'm glad that me and the missus got married...just feels right for us. Ten years ago, if you had've asked me it would've been "I ain't gettin married....". I reckon it's up to the individual, although the women seem to want the whole nine yards.
Same with kids: once you've got them, your life's no longer your own... both mine are under 4 y.o (and #3 due next March), and they are a source of constant amusement and wonder. They're noisy and chaotic, but very special... mind you I can remember my life pre-kids, and I enjoyed it too... Mind you, I was quite conventional with my proposal too, but it worked: took her away for a dirty weekend at a posh resort : : ... bit of tampering in the spa : ... shout her dinner... get her a wee bit tipsy and giggly : ... bit more tampering in the spa : ... stake her out on the workbench and give her a right seeing to: : : ... pop the question just before the vinegar stroke :... ahh Hank you silver-tongued devil, gets 'em every time... mind you, when she found out that I'd been hiding her 1/2 carat ring in my socks and jocks drawer for 3 1/2 months - just to keep her sweating - she hit the roof! :

I wanted to suprise my wife, it was while on a ride day at Phillip Island, i had just come in for lunch, i took her for a walk up the pits to see the podium mighty Mick Doohan had recently stood on, got down on one knee, opened the pocket in my leathers, and produced the $6500.00 sparkler in front of around 80 bikers.
I started cutting some decent laps after lunch, was too nervous before that. Now whenever watching the awards at a Phillip Island motorsport event, i look at the podium and think, i was a winner standing there once |

Mitchay, you remind me of a guy at work who is just like you. Not getting married, not having kids (cretins, going by him). He even tells us his G/F doesn't, but to believe that, I'd have to hear it from her mouth.

I was proposed to via a mobile phone call from her mum while I was driving down a busy six lane road trying to drink a bogan juice (Farmers Union Iced Coffee), as she was to scared and wanted her mum to ask me there and then! I spilt the drink, said I'd think about it, then said yes. She then got cold feet.......
Now she lives in the UK and we're best friends. :

We were at a restaurant and the table cloths had white paper over the top of them. I went to the toilet and came back to writing on the paper. "Will you marry me." with a yes tick box and a no tick box.
Said yes, then we chose the ring and he tried to pick up the ring and surprise me with in on bended knee at another restaurant. Only problem was, one of his best friends arrived at the same restaurant with some of his mates and pulled their table up to ours, so what was supposed to be an intimate proposal ended up being in front of his mates. Now we're getting divorced. NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!! |

14th Feb this year I made a candle lit dinner (I don't cook much) and desert. After that I got down on my knee and did it. It was very nerve racking even though we have been together for 7 years dating back to when we were at school. Getting married in April 06. Funny thing is my longest relationship before this was about 1 week.

It was just becomming dawn and I was walking away from my girlfriends house, i stopped suddenly in the driveway, turned around, I opened the screen door and went to my girlfriends room and said quietly to her.
"Honey, your dad's got a shotgun and he's sitting on my bonnet..." And so began my first marriage.
