[NeoTifa]

thanks everyone. ive resolved to the fact that i will never be with the other person=objectofaffection, so im a lot happier now. and laer know i like said person. i think he tries to set us up sometimes, by inviting him everywhere we go XD jerk. lol. anywho, ive already set out to plan, even though ive got like 4 years. lol. never to early.

what color scheme should i have? i was thinking teal or aquamarine, since he likes blue, but idk. my fav color is red, but thats too risque for a wedding. i was thinking pink/magenta, but .... idk. laer in a pink/magenta tie?! noh whey! and a few of my maybe-bridesmaids are really pale. help me out people!!!

[~*~Celes~*~]

Teal sounds lovely What time of year is the wedding?

[NeoTifa]

[Strawberry_Mew]

Congrads !! :3 I am in a serious realtionship! <3 2-be honest I always think about marriage. There is always true love. Everyone has some body <3

I'm not with everyone on the whole issues thing. You know you can't have what you want and you seem willing to try and move on. Though you're basically defaulting or rebounding, that doesn't mean it can't work. I agree though that you're quite young to worry about marriage. If its four years away I think it might have been wiser to wait until closer to when it could actually be accomplished to ask. But that's just me. If this is what you want and you believe it'll work then congrats

I don't think it'd be appropriate for me to comment on the second question. Girls have issues with me and this isn't the place to drop any kind of dirty laundry

[Miriel]

I'd really suggest that you concentrate more on your MARRIAGE than on your wedding. You're more concerned about your color scheme than you are with the fact that you fell in love with some other guy while you were with your current boyfriend/fiance? What makes you think that something like that won't happen again? I don't think it's right to accept a proposal like that under the assumption that you'll have a long engagement and can therefore put off thinking about the heavy duty serious stuff until later. Sorry that I'm lecturing and that I didn't follow the congratulate or die set up.

I've been with my boyfriend for almost 2.5 years. We are not formally engaged yet.

[Blue Harvest]

lol so you wouldnt take the die option?

I'll gladly take the die option

If you genuinely think that you can be happy in life by simply "settling" then think again. It's because of people "settling" with what they have that divorce rates are so high - people get married too early or for all the wrong reasons. What everyone is saying is true; you shouldn't be simply pushing aside these issues you have to be all "lolz ima hav gren n blu dresseses and stuf xD" - it's textbook denial and it's not healthy for you. Also four years is a long time and you'll probably do a lot of maturing between now and then (you're only 16ish now anyways, a mere child). If you don't want to discuss this here then fine, but don't disregard the advice that the vast majority of people are giving you. Think, reassess, contemplate and then take affirmative action.

Congrats, I think. If you are having second thoughts about marriage, seriously contemplate them and come to a conclusion, and go from there. I would talk to everybody and get a balanced view before I make a decision (including your fiancée/fiance)

I'm not in a relationship and haven't been in one since I decided 'Damnit PG you're not jumping into another one unless the chances of it being a truly serious (not in the zomg we're having sex this is serialious business way) are good/high'. This effectively screws me out of a lot of possibilities and I'm running out of available girls to ask out. Damnit.

However even if I were in a serious relationship I haven't justified why I should get married. I think one of the main practical & secular (as opposed to practical and theistic?) reasons to get married is the tax benefits. I intend to pull my own weight in relationships, and when we're speaking financially, there's less chance for a tax benefit when both couples make the same amount of money and file jointly.

I hate linking msn articles but sauce. (The people who tended to face a marriage penalty were those with similar incomes. Typically, the more they made, the bigger the penalty they paid.)

So I would ask a varied amount of married couples and ask them why they got married, filter out the useless answers, and decide whether marriage is good for me. This obviously removes a great deal of the romantic aspect of a marriage. Good job, PG

O.o

the way i figure, no use throwing a perfectly good relationship out the window cuz i beleive i have feelings for someone else. it may just be an infatuation, a phase, and it wont last long. or lust? idk. we will nvr be together, ivealready tried, but until i graduate school, im not gonna focus on just larry.

see, i have this problem, and im sure a lot of girls can relate. for some reason, i get strongly attached to a person, viciously hunt them down til i have them, then lose interest. im afraid that might be whats going on. i love larry, so im not gonna destroy something good in the dim chance that it might work between me and s****** and not lose interest.

and sense i feel like weve been married forever, i am excited. i want to start picturing everything in my head. is that so bad?! XD. weve talked about everything. were quite mature about this.

and im 18 1/2 btw
