you make no sense but good luck working on that

 

 

And quick!!

Wow, you are awesome

Posted

lol you can make all the jokes you want. i wouldn't doubt if in the next year or so, we will see a thread by you entitled " i need help with my divorce". you didn't even give it anymore thought as suggested. you do seem to be overly emotional and not thinking clearly. ever heard of the movie called "Fools rush in" that title seems to suit your situation

 

and by the way, your moronic comment regarding you think i'm not experienced because i don't approve of a guy forcing himself down a girls pants. dude, if you really think that....you got more than control issues. good luck to you and the girl . she needs it. peace lol

Hey, don't rain on his parade!

 

There always has to be that negative voice, that doubt that comes in to disturb things.

 

Don't let it get to you, JB. From what you posted here, you both have handled this magnificently. Really, I'm in awe. From the semi-break to your epiphany, to this new life ahead that you two will be sharing, I think it's magnificent. Thanks for sharing with us.

Good advice.

 

And truly appreciated.

 

You are a better person than me. If I were how I picture you to be from reading your posts, I wouldnt even be thinking of anyone else and whats good for them right now. Rather Id probably be thinking what happens when some guy not like me, rather intelligent and non effeminate, convinces my gf into letting him give her a proper shagging for once.

 

I really admire your ability to remain empathetic. It speaks well of you

sugar coating is not always a good thing

sugar coating is not always a good thing

 

I know what you mean. Having many different perspectives on one thing is part of what makes life so great. What you are not getting though is that you did not add anything constructive to this thread, you are simply shooting the whole thing down.

 

This is your first post on the thread:

 

yeah I suggest not asking her you sound confused and immature

 

That is all you said. There was no reason behind it, nothing constructive. Do you see what you are doing? You are not adding anything, you are only being negative, and you continue to do so.

 

I'm afraid you don't do this just online. Take a look at your life and see how you are shooting everything down. That type of negative attitude will get you nowhere.

 

You didn't "get" this thread with that attitude blinding you, and I'm afraid that you don't "get" life. Not trying to be mean, just not sugar coating this for you.

sorry but you seem a bit dense and not practical in the least. constructive was suggesting not proposing which is due to obvious reasoning. LOL. if I don't see any positive in this, why would I lie. do you know me? you don't know me or my life, so don't make assumptions. you're way off and you must live on a cloud

 

look back at his first post. he calls his girl and her friends are talking about her getting laid by other dudes. he clearly flips and ask her to marry him because of that. once there is a chance of her seeing someone else, he wants to tie her down and control her. that is what i think it is. Johnny M is right too, go back and read his post. one of the only few that makes sense.

I hate to say it, but glad others brought it up, it seemed like a bad idea to me.

The idea that you had to break up to get "perspective" is a HUGE red flag for me. And now that you say this:

 

What was bothering me was why am I not feeling it like I thought I should. Evene things I had felt before when I was younger. And I was telling myself that Im not younger any more, and IM different, the way Ill feel things is going to be different. But that wasnt it

 

It rings true even more.

 

I'm pushing 40 and it does not change at ALL when we get older and meet the person that feels right. I am with him right now we are head over heels I am passionately in love with him and he with me. We've been together just under 6months and he's already asked me what kind of ring I like. When it feels right you know it, no matter what age you are. It sounds like this time around it did not feel 100% right for you I really REALLY hope it works out in the long run.

 

I feel bad for her. :(

At least this time around, with your above post, you illustrate your opinion a little more. Consider illustrating your point of view more in future posts and not say something so vague (read: dense) that you assume we get by using your so-called "obvious reasoning."

 

Talk about a cloud... lol

If you were speaking to me, I don't flag anyone, yourself included. Although I have been flagged 3 times on this thread by androgyny

 

Nor did I take anything you wrote as offensive

I like my "cloud", tyvm. Just because I love my life and am a happy person doesn't mean I live on some cloud. lol.

 

Let me guess..... I guess you're God, right? And YOU don't live on a cloud, you know all truth and don't have to have your own cloud of beliefs that keep you going? So THAT'S why you're on Love Shack, to spread your infinite wisdom and "obvious reasoning?"

 

yeah right. You live on cloud, too, buddy. In fact, it's called perspective, and that's what love shack if for, it's a sharing of perspectives. Or did you come on here to be negative?

 

sigh. Look. It's obvious you and I have very different perspectives, I respect that. I'm not trying to argue with you, just found your negativity on this thread distasteful and totally NOT on the thread topic.

Just ignore him, everyone else does! he's only got 30 posts and most of them are flames or flame attempts.

Nah man, I appreciate what you are saying, it wasnt out of the blue.

 

I had already decided that I was going to ask. I pretty much knew the night I asked her for time to think. Neither of us are children, and it wasnt a situation where she had been pretending as to not wanting anything more, and just suddenly hit me with it out of the blue.

 

And it wasnt just marriage to consider. She wanted children,and that isnt something I had ever really felt a need for. Not fundamentqally opposed, but the thought of brining someone into the world.....just huge for me

 

But weve been together for 2 1/2 years. And Ive been very happy and grateful to be with her. And I always knew I didnt want to lose her. Rationally knowing I should be with her was never the problem.

Well, in that case, congrats!

Thanks man..

 

The time apart was along the lines of ok I'm taking this seriously, and I agree a decision has to be made. We had talked about it before, nothing happened. The Idea being Im not just trying to placate you and hope it gets forgotten in a few days.

Posted
Because one rarely gets to see the benefit of an opinion so completely unencumbered by actual insight or experience.

LOL :laugh: If you actually came up with that line, I'm impressed!

CONGRATS JERSEYBOY!!!!!!!!! I love proposals and happy beginnings :love:

Posted

AWWWWWWWWW jerseyboy!!!! so sweet....:love:....congratulations! Does that mean you realized your GF is afterall a ninja?...Congratulations!!!!!

Posted
Im a cliche Mediterranean.:o

 

Shes the same way minus the drama, so its a great mesh

 

So My fiancee pretty much knew it alla ong, although she says she had some doubts, because of how quickly it happened.

 

I hadnt considered shed want to go buy a dress,shoes and all the rest lol She did do the nails, hair, makeup thing, but dropped the rest because she didnt have enough time.

 

OMG she looked stunning. I mean as in I was literally stunned. In a lot of ways it has been like seeing her for the first time, like not as if shes a stranger, but just more clearly somehow. Her hair was up, she looked so elegant. Black dress, with like spaghettit type straps. She really looked so beautiful

 

Food was a waste lol. Neither of us could eat anything. The room was amazing, and I keep saying room, not like a bedroom. Just one used to entertain high level clients during the week. But Josh did an unbelievable job. I had a bought a video camera, cause I suck at that kind of stuff, but she tapes everything. So we do have video of it. It wqas probably the longest proposal in history. I just had so much to say to her, so many things bursting to get out. We were both tearing up.

 

She said yes:love:

 

And we sat by the fireplace and talked for a long time.

 

She definitely really loved the ring.

 

Afterwrads there were like a thousand phone calls. She ended up web chatting with her gf's and some family so they could see her and the ring. I was exhausted so I dozed off on the couch for a little. She woke me after she was done,a nd we stayed up the rest of the night. She had to work today

 

Congrats!!!

 

Do you think she knew it was coming?
