Chance would be a fine thing

One good point about this would be; She can spend a fortune on an engagment ring for herself!

a lass on here was planning to propose today and promised us an update...... seeing as I've seen nothing does this mean he said no and she died of embarassment or, are they still ******** to celebrate?

Oh no!

24 watches to reset.

But 16 would need doing anyway, if you get my drift. (shake, shake.)

PS. Currently engaged for 5 years 3 months, and 9 years before that.
Dont like rushing into things........She hasnt said anything today.

She did say something rather alarming at the start of the week though!

Okay, I was the 'lass' who promised you all an update.

Bought him a gold wedding band and had 'Marry Me X Rachel' engraved inside. He found it last weekend whilst cleaning my car, and looked suprised and told me I best ask him om the 29th. On the 28th at about 23.45 he said that he didn't think I should ask him coz we have only been together a year and that he doesn't live with me properly yet. (I have all his un-essentials in the house, but no essentials!, and he hasn't spent a night at his mum's house in nearly 6 weeks) He said he was flattered that I was going to ask. I can't work you lads out sometimes!!!!

So I didn't ask, and was gutted

I managed to avoid it (for the third leap year on the trot ) by inadvertently starting an argument at 0645hrs on Sunday morning. Good old PMT !

Sorry to hear that little miss fire, but at least you got some prior warning I guess, could have been worse if you sprang it on him and he said no by the sounds of it! Better luck in 4 years time!
