is it her money or yours... if its hers why havent you asked yet?

[Calienta]

Money is not an object? In that case fly her to New Zealand and propose on the top of a mountain. That's what someone at work here did.

mine every penny

now any real ideas?

[Calienta]

Mine was a real idea, ffs. Don't say money isn't an option then throw away a decent idea that would cost a lot.

SORRY I THOUGHT U WAS JOKING LOL

[Uganja]

try hitting her

[Drunken Monk]

Dude the price of this kind of stuff shouldn't matter, nor should it matter how elaborate it is. Hell the most special thing I can think of doing is turning to my girl when we're walking in the park one sunday and saying "Oi, fancy getting married?" Make it intimate mate, and make it something that's out of the boring cliches that most men bombard their partners with and ffs don't put the ring at the bottom of a cake or a bowl of ice cream or something half arsed like that :P

[Calienta]

yeah she might eat it pmsl

[Drunken Monk]

Haha Rach, do you have some experience in this field then?

[Canadiana]

I only asked a girl to marry me once. There was nothing special about it. She liked to go to the beach...A lot. She spent half her time near the water. So I took her diving. Took her to a spot where I'd hidden a water-tight box. We brought it back to her cabin where I proceeded to get on a knee and ask her. She said yes but unfortunately it didn't last till the wedding. See, I'd hidden my gender orientation from her since I was afraid to lose her. One night we were sitting around having a drink and it slipped out. You can imagine the rest.

[Calienta]

I don't blame her. I wouldn't date a bisexual guy but if I did without knowing, and he told me, I'd be so pissed that he hid that from me I'd dump his ass even if I didn't have a problem with it.

[Smash Bros]

i took my missus to the beach and asked her while we were sitting there togeather.


there is a thread someone on here i think :S

BUT i didnt have a ring or anything then either. we couldnt afford that and she knows it. but doesnt make me love her any less. money should not have any part of it.

do something that she likes and ask her then. if you have the money then i guess use it. but dont make it expensive and over the top. that seems to me a little like a show off.

My brother-in-law proposed (to my sister) underwater.

They both scuba dive so he got one of those boards that you can write with underwater and wrote "Will you marry me" on it - actually, he wrote "My darling, I love you, will you marry me" - which sort of made me a bit nauseated, but the sentiment was nice.

He wrote this before he went down, so it was all clear and neatly written. She wrote a reply on it - but because she was writing underwater it was the most pitiful little "yes", but they've kept the slate.

What amused me most was they returned (to Thailand) after they were married - supposedly (they claim this is true) they're on their way out to a dive with a group of people and tell the story. Alex (my brother-in-law) says that on the way back from the dive a guy who was there with his girlfriend came up to him and said he'd fucked up his idea and showed Alex the ring - unlucky (if it's true - lovely guy, but a little prone to exaggeration).

Thats just harsh and yet... so stereotypical. Not something Id expect from you. But I guess thats my fault then.

[Calienta]

Maybe stereotypical. In any case, a guy who is sexually attracted to males is not something that I like or could really ever get over. :dunno:

[Canadiana]

I guess I now know why you dont respond to me in the SB but it's strange. I feel no attraction to you.

--Edited--

All I know is when she did that to me.... damn it felt like a million knives through the heart. She claimed to love me, yet when she found something out about me that wouldnt affect us, she ran. I woke up to find a ring on my phone and a new text message.

[Calienta]

Oh lord. My 'not responding to you in the sb' is NOTHING to do with your sexual orientation!!! I don't give a rat's ass what anybody else does with their sex life, only if their sex life is going to include me. And as for your fiancee, it is very sad that she did that, but in fairness you did hide it from her. She probably felt she couldn't trust you after that.

[Condom]

she did the right thing in my opinion. how can you expect someone to love you and understand something soo important to you when you don't tell her until right before yuo get married... that showed her that you werent totally honest with her and that there was prolly no chance of you being honest in your marriage. you can't hide something that major; maybe debt problem or a crazy ex girlfriend but not something as major as your sexual orientation. and you shouldn't get offended with Cali when she says that she could not be with a bisexual. i could not be with a bi sexual woman for more than one night. For some people they can be best friends with someone of a different sexual orientation but relationships and even marriage are a totally different thing. Some things are attractive and some things just arent and they vary from person to person. if you want cali to respect your sexual orientation, then you must respect hers as well.

[Canadiana]

My being bi shouldn't have had any effect. I was with a woman. So for all points and purposes it shouldn't have mattered. This is something that straight people can't understand, not that many have tried, no matter how hard they try. This is not something that is easily said until its out in the public. And there are still a lot of people who don't know. People I have to hide behind a veil of straightness for.
