Streamjumper viRTuaLiNSaNiTy On the subject of the whole proposal thing, I'm gonna side with the AG on it too. The instability and shortness of the relationship...and the youth all makes it seem like a mistake. I would speak from my experience, but I seem silly since I can't get married anyway. Still, regardless of that, I wouldn't even want to get married at this point if I could because we're both still young and need to get to a financial point of stability. Emotionally and all we're good and we've been living together (24/7 aside from school) for two years this December...but I still don't think it's a good time to tie any sort of knot. It doesn't really matter all that much anyway in a committed long-term relationship. :3 Same here. I think its kinda hilarious that given the ferocity of the handful of fights you and I have had, we tend to think quite similarly. The only part I disagree on is the last, but in a strange way. While it is unessential and make no huge alteration, it does indeed matter in a massive way. Just being in a relationship means that you are giving the other person your present... the vow of marriage is the act of affirming that you are giving them your present, future, and eternity. Yes, anullment and divorce exist, but both are ways out of the contract of the marriage... not excuses for backing out of the vow. As such they should truthfully be treated as aberrations since one is not intended to be considering them at the time of the Loki: Marrying this fast is crazy rushed, smacks of trying to prove something (in this case to her parents as much as to yourselves), and practically ensures a horrible end down the road a few years. I suggest a pair of cold showers, many long hours of quiet thought, and a long discussion with each other and some older people the both of you know and respect who have been in a successful long term relationship (preferably married for several years to boot) to get things straight in your head. Jumping into it while heated at her parents for overreacting (and reasonably so, given your actions) cheapens it by turning it into a weapon to use against them and a wedge to drive between them and her. Love should be used to bind people (and families) together, not turned against them. You've generally shown yourself to be a good guy, but also impulsive and prone to the occasional bout of bad judgment, so don't take this a personal attack. Rather, look it as someone watching your back... even if it means protecting your from yourself. Just the small differences and both of us being very stubborn heart
I can understand what you're saying though. It's more of a solid commitment. I totally understand, but I guess because of the "predicament" I'm in I guess I can't see a huge deal about marriage. It would be nice to eventually, yes, and especially for the benefits...but we're all different too in how we are in relationships. As Spider mentioned too, a promise ring may also be another form (though not technically as binding) to consider.
I dunno. I've got incredibly mixed feeling about marriage. It's a matter of preference, I suppose.

EdwardHau Before I begin, I would like to point out that none of this is exaggerated or embellished upon. This is basically a play by play of everything that happened. Seriously not lying, I know a story like this seems a little too perfect, but this exactly what happened today. Furthermore, this kid has been a total pain the a** for the last three months. Aside from the fact that he's lazy as hell, he's constantly battle rapping everyone that works there. So, with that... a continuous stream of the big N word, and his general disregard for hygiene. We have to remind him to wash his hands after using the bathroom EVERY TIME. I feel that I'm kind of justified in screwing with him a little bit.
Walk into the back of the restaurant today to bring the dishers a pan I was cooking in. I open the door and stand there for a minute, because the young disher is standing in my way talking to the other disher, my friend Nick. Suddenly he turns around.
Kid: Whoa, man! I don't like it when Dudes be standing behind me. Me: Haha. Why not? Kid: 'Cause it's kinda' homo man, all right? Me: Huh.. well, I'd never see it that way. Maybe you're a little confused with your sexuality? Kid: Nooo man.. Hahahaha.. hahaha. You're weird, dude. -walks off- Me: -looks to Nick- twisted Nick: ..... sweatdrop
So for next hour or so, whenever I have any free time and happen to be near the kid, I do a little bit a dancing near him. The usual routine, pretending I have glow sticks, snapping of the fingers, etc. He laughs mostly, but I get the feeling every time I walk away he starts complaining to Nick. Finally I go back there about fifteen minutes before the kid's shift is about to end.
Nick: Hey.. I kind of told Josh you were gay. sweatdrop Me: Oh cool, I guess we're going to run with that now. -walks over to the kid- So, I just thought I'd tell you.. well, I don't want to weird you out or anything with the dancing and all that. I realize it's inappropriate and I'm sorry. Kid: Haha.. what do you mean, dude? Me: Well, I am actually gay and I wasn't sure if you'd be comfortable with all of that stuff knowing this. So I'm going to stop, all right? Sorry. Kid: Hahahahaha... uhh.. no way dude, haha.. no way. Me: Seriously man, I'm not kidding. Not even trying to have a laugh about this. I'm really sorry about all that stuff, hope it doesn't bother you. Kid: No way dude, get the ******** out of here.. no way. hahahahaha.. no way.
So over the next five minutes, he proceeds to go to every person in the restaurant, inquiring as to whether or not I am indeed gay. Everyone informs him yes, some at my request others just assuming that 'yes' is the most appropriate answer I guess. He goes up to the manager Austin, and informs him that he'd rather not do shifts with me anymore. Finally as I'm walking into the back room, I hear him talking with one of the waitresses.
Kid: Man I can't believe Justin's a f*g, man... that's ******** gross. Me: Hey man, I really don't appreciate hearing you say that. It's downright offensive and rude and I don't appreciate it in the slightest. Kid: Hahahaha.. whatever man, just get away from me.. I don't even trust you anymore. Me: No, I won't get away until you apologize for saying that. It's extremely rude. Kid: Whatever man, just don't ******** touch me anymore... -walks away without turning his back on me and leaves the restaurant- People like that are silly.
Crazy though. I'm rather impressed that you can play along with the gay joke in real life too. Just shows a lot of security and I find that impressive. 3nodding heart

TweedleKeys LunaInverse I want this cake for Stream for our wedding... rofl Cute. Groom's cakes often seem more interesting than the wedding cake on a whole. While at Disney, my friend pointed out a Mickey & Minnie wedding cake topper and said Diffy and I could use that. I said that we were probably more like if Goofy married Daisy. He said he wasn't sure who that was meaner to. That's because most brides (and their mothers, and many grooms) are dead convinced that everything about a wedding has to be utterly serious, white, and devoid of anything but the same old blah. Yet strangely at the same time totally different and better than everything else that it is a carbon-copy of.

viRTuaLiNSaNiTy People like that are silly.

Just shows a lot of security and I find that impressive. 3nodding heart It's very easy for me to play along with it. I mean, the only time it ever bothers me is when I feel that I may have offended someone who actually is gay. That's a rare thing, but I've had my concerns occasionally. In any other situation though, it really isn’t even something that I give second thought to.

Skizzors Nothin' like falling asleep in Biology only to wake up just in time to hear your teacher yelling "Testicles! Balls!" I'm so hoping there's an explanation in the next few pages. Please don't disappoint me. Edit: I am disappointed. Someone needs to pay, whether in blood or entertainment.

ravendream Peppermint Elf ravendream EdwardHau Definitely a spider bite. Let us just hope it wasn't a Brown Recluse. How many days has it been since it happened? Anyway... Brown recluse bites are pretty uncommon, and only a minority cause anything severe, right?? Just keep an eye on it. After a few days, you'll know if it's anything serious. D: I got a normal spider bite and it left a bruise there for 2-3 months. Expect it to be there for a while. sweatdrop The bruise is one thing, but if it's a brown recluse bite, and necrosis sets in... that's another story. I usually have marks from regular spider bits for awhile too. I don't think I've ever been bit by a spider... and I used to do some hardcore camping/hiking/outdoor activities.

I mean, you're not acting any different, just stating what you are differently. whee

Kinetic Dream Peppermint Elf Kinetic Dream Peppermint Elf Kinetic Dream The Prophet twitches slightly, roused from her sickly nap (likely some Loki gone down the wrong way) and is greeted by her most mortal of enemies. Or rather unmortal as it were, the mostly harmless Zombie. However, that doesn't stop our fearless Prophet from... Turning tail... and running up a tree. Obviously to pounce! No, no she's just sitting there, glaring at the zombie. Now I remember why I love you. heart whee Tail twitching violently, the Prophet mutters useless curses at the zombie, who has lingered around the tree throughout the night, forcing the Prophet to sleep in the aforementioned tree. Stretching back out across the branch, the Prophet ponders what would be best to get rid of such a hethanistic creature. *watches from a safe distance using her high powered binoculars and records the prophet's movements, wondering when she'll figure out to use the tree to smite the zombie* ninja The Prophet has been still for the better part of a day, long having run out of curses and taunts to try and drive the zombie away, who is currently drooling on the bark of the tree. Clawing clumsily, it seems like another hundred years or so before the conclusion of this battle. Or until the Prophet dies of starvation and falls out of the tree. And so we bid farewell to the vicious and merciless Prophet, chased up a tree by the undead. You have given us a great many laughs, tears, and fears. Rest well. BAD END... At least until she forces the tree to fall and crush the zombie under it's weight, plodding away with a smug smirk on her face.
