I proposed slightly drunk in bed after banging. It felt right then and I wouldn't do it differently today. Then we picked out a ring together. Antique black opal because we're both anti diamond.

I proposed to my ex while on a "break". Over text. Sent her a picture of the ring. That went as well as you probably expect. I was sick in bed with a fever at the time, so that slightly mitigates the situation, but still, I am the AUG.

I mean obviously it worked for them? Maybe they'd already discussed getting engaged, both like grand gestures and poo poo? I mean it sounds awful to me too but telling someone their proposal is your worst nightmare at the actual party celebrating that proposal does indeed sound like being a loving downer

It was 100% a surprise to her, and she was saying how my boyfriend at the time should go the 'huge public surprise route'.

I'm probably a downer, but that sort of spectacle ain't my cup of tea.

I'm fine with being cat property. They keep me company when I'm sick and purr loudly for scritches and will even play with me sometimes. They just need to be fed and scooped and given places to scratch and high perches to lie.

quote:

This Surrealist object was inspired by a conversation between Oppenheim and artists Pablo Picasso and Dora Maar at a Paris cafe. Admiring Oppenheim's fur-covered bracelet, Picasso remarked that one could cover anything with fur, to which she replied, "Even this cup and saucer." Soon after, when asked by André Breton, Surrealism's leader, to participate in the first Surrealist exhibition dedicated to objects, Oppenheim bought a teacup, saucer, and spoon at a department store and covered them with the fur of a Chinese gazelle. In so doing, she transformed genteel items traditionally associated with feminine decorum into sensuous, sexually punning tableware.

Sounds like an overwrought analysis to explain why a woman just had the stones to follow up on a joke she made to Picasso once.

On the topic of weddings one thing I've noticed is that the ones that last forever are the ones that just don't spend a lot of money on things. Just a little ceremony where nobody bothers dressing up with the preacher that they know or whoever is at the church they attend, a BYOB potluck for whoever wants to show up, and no pressure to make it The Perfect Night. The more debt a wedding incurs the more likely the couple is to get divorced.

I knew a woman that worked in a bridal shop and she had some interesting things to say on weddings. The most telling things were the people she saw more than once or wedding plans that fell apart. If it was a camo-themed wedding between rednecks it'd be an inexpensive affair that would create a rock solid marriage. She might see the woman back because she was being a bridesmaid but never would see them again otherwise. Pink weddings or weddings involving women named Brittany (I never could figure out why, she just said that Brittanies tend to get divorced) were practically guaranteed to lead to failed marriages. Women that demanded pink weddings would pretty much always be back in the shop to get married again within a few years. The more debt the couple (well, typically the groom) went into to pay for the wedding the more likely they were to get divorced and the shorter the marriage would last.

Often the pressure to have an expensive wedding came from the parents. Even that could lead to serious issues in the marriage; she saw a lot of weddings where the couple wanted a simple thing and didn't want to make a big fuss but the parents had money and absolutely insisted that it be expensive. Often they'd front a significant chunk of the money or set a budget then flake on much of what they agreed to pay. Typically that would come from the bride's family and they'd also sometimes bitch that he was a loser if he didn't have a big enough house or a nice enough car. Didn't matter if he had a good job and just, you know, was frugal and good with money, no! Their Little Girl deserved the biggest and best of everything! Even if she herself was totally fine with a simple, quiet life without the stress of a mountain of debt, THAT ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH BECAUSE SHE'S OUR LITTLE PRINCESS! Apparently those parents were also the ones that would come back after the wedding to complain that things weren't good enough and we want some of our money back.

Now you know why I used the qualifier "possibly." Seriously a hosed up thing to do to someone who doesn't deserve it, and she has no way of knowing if the woman she's selling her tests to is scamming someone who actually deserves it. Now, that black chick who pretended to be a republican to scam money from CHUDs, that's a hero we can all learn a thing or two from. :patriot:
