Exactly...my wife and I did it so that we would have to the legal benefits and protections. Otherwise, in our eyes and in the eyes of our gods, we were already married and have been so for quite some time.
We did a nice outdoor ceremony in our back yard (we have a nice back yard with a garden area with trellises...very pretty setting in the spring and summer) Eric -----Original Message----- From: G Money [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2010 10:39 AM To: cf-community Subject: Re: popping the big question I'll just give you the other side of that........marry her if marriage is nothing short of a mere formality. Marrying my then girlfriend changed nothing in our lives. We had a big ceremony and everyone had a great time, but nothing changed. Marriage should not change how you feel, how you interact, how you care for each other.....anything. If marriage changes something, or will change something, then that would be a red flag. If truly care for each other, and marriage is nothing more than a ceremony to emphasize it...then by all means get married. My wife and I have had nothing but good times....it IS possible to be "happily married" :) As for hte proposal, I went the traditional route. Nice restaurant, down on one knee after the main course, before hte dessert. As for the anxiety...several drinks helped me :) On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 10:24 AM, Vivec <[email protected]> wrote: > > I agree. Don't rush to marry.
