I thought about not posting this....the gay thread may steal my thunder.
Damn gays :bigroll:

Anyhow, I finally popped the question. Asked her to marry me last night. No cheesy ring-in-pudding, or message in the sky (no offence to those who have done this, just not our style). Just a simple picnic in the back yard under moonlight and a couple propane heaters :)

We've been seein' each other since highschool, almost 7 years ago. We broke up last year, spent some time apart, and got back together just before Christmas, and things are more solid then ever.

Also, she has an Acura TL and an Acura RSX. Which means Ill need to buy a Z06 to even out our international garage. :stirpot:

Hmm...Let's see: hot dogs and whiskey combined = if she hears you after this party, you're not getting married

Just for your sake, I'll save the hot dogs for myself.

There's bound to be a bumper somewhere on this site that you can use.

Congrats. I wish for you the happiness that I share with my husband. Marriage is a wonderful thing as long as you remember to respect and cherish each other each and everyday.

Best way to do it I say. :) That flashy stuff is more cheesy than romantic.

pre-nup


F How do ya bring this up? I mean, how we see each other now really could change in the next 5, 10 or even 20 years. "A man in love mistakes a pimple for a dimple." So how do you approach to topic of pre-nup?

By the way, thanks to all for the good cheer. I had a drink for each one of ya last night :)

Just say, "hey, we gotta talk about a pre-nup". Its just business. Youre entering into a contract with another person, and you need to protect yourself in case the one you love turns into a raging bitch and you pull the ejection handles. Tell her you love her, then come to terms on "pre marital" ownership of things (your current car, stereo system, furniture, etc...) This will all come up in court if you are unfortunate enough to be there in the 1st place. BTW, it is the crappiest contract in the world, if you or she doesnt like it and wants out, they get 50% of whatever you have....shitty indeed. A pre nup will help.

F So, something like, whats mine now is mine, whats yours now is yours, what we buy together in the future, we fight for if we get divorced?

Obviously a lawyer has to get involved, but are there any typical loopholes in a pre-nup? 50%...crazy

(CAVEAT: I am not a lawyer and I dont play one on t.v., Ive been divorced, thats how I know this crap.)
Any propertyhome you buy together will have to be split as well, so if you get the house, she gets 50% of it, plus whatever it appreciated, plus any stuff you may have bought together to fix it up. I lost 50K in 3 years...it sux. If you have a pet, figure out who gets that. Keep your money separate, that way she cant clean out the joint account (ask me how I know). If you own a business, make sure that is kept separate, or she gets half of that too.
Get a divorce lawyer, they know their stuff, and have them draw up the pre-nup.
Cheers!

That reminds me of another saying. "Marraige is not 50/50. It's 100/100." Heh I like that :thumbsup:

THANK YOU! Amen to that :highfive:

:nono: No no..you got it all wrong. It's "What's mine is mine, what's yours is mine also" :D ;)

Congrats & best of luck & happiness, always. I'm on year # 24. I don't regret it for a moment ~ I am :)

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! :thumbsup:

Yeah, no pre-nup will be going on over here. We are both civil and caring people....we wouldn't try to screw eachother out of anything :thumbsup: We've talked about what would happen if (god forbid) something were to happen.

IMHO, a prenup undermines the whole institution of a sacramental marriage.
"For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer. In sickness and in health. Until death do us part"...remember those vows?

If you can't go into it believing this and you think you need a prenup, why get married?

I agree.

If you need to make plans on how it will end, you are getting married for the wrong reasons.

Since its now officially not an april fools joke, I can now say congratulations!

OK That's what I wanted to say but I didn't want to offend anyone LOL. I agree 100% :thumbsup:

No one ever intends to get screwed...it happens sometimes. Pre-nups are a way to CYA.

Im done ranting.....

A man with a good wife is wealthy beyond anything he could have in a bank.

About the prenup..
Marriage is a balls to the wall trust or no trust situation
You go into it knowing the risks

You can't expect a good return without a good sized risk.. in love.
In business you can minimize risk and maximize return unless you're stupid.
In love it doesn't always work that way because alot of steps taken to minimize risk also minimize feeling..
I made sure my ex didnt get away with much over $100
And I got away with quite a bit more as I rightly ought to have since she ended us

The thing is I never knew what human emotion could do to a man in love.
I thought I was bad shit until I found out that we're all human.
A prenup could never have protected me from destroying myself over missing her.

No one ever intends to get screwed...it happens sometimes. Pre-nups are a way to CYA.

I feel you...with the US divorce rate people are definitely justified in doing so. I, personally, just kinda feel it defeats the purpose of what marraige is supposed to be. We have had a talk though, and I think that is something everyone should do.

About this pre-nup business, I would like to think that I am at the very least a good enough judge of character to be able to know who I am marrying and if I can trust (to some degree) her should the shit hit the fan. If ever I feel the need to get a pre-nup (a roundabout sort of mistrust), I might want to think about who it is that I am getting married to and work from there. Afterall, if there is that much mistrust, would I really want to marry her? And believe me when I say I know a thing or two about being with a woman that I cannot trust...

Whoa!. Whats the difference between a wedding and a funeral?...........I'll let ya know when I find out. Damn it, dont do it. BTW: Congrats:eek:
