    Re: Proposing?

    I use to be engaged when I was 19 and up the spout, my partner just asked me when we were laying on the floor watching t.v lol, I don't believe in all the romantic surprise stuff, like hiding the ring in a cake or going on one knee in a resturant or doing it in front of family/friends, I'm glad my proposal was a private thing, only lasted a few months tho, ring ended up laying in the street after a massive argument and I slung it somewhere.
    We will never be engaged again, as I got a lil older I decided that I never ever want to be married, my opinions on it have changed massively and I guess I just don't believe in it anymore.

    Congrats in advance for you tho x

    I don't understand why people try to get married that young anyway.

    I think he only asked cos I was preggers, if I wasn't he wouldn't of asked and the only reason i said yes because the whole idea of a big expensive day that revolves around me seemed very appealing, thats partly the reason I don't wanna get married anymore not a very nice reason to have to wanna get married really kinda selfish.

    Yep. And I can't believe you'd chuck a ring as well. Pretty mature.

    I'm sure we've all been in situations when we were younger where we made really, really dumb decisions. I don't think she was at all claiming that she was being mature in the decision!

    I've been engaged once before. I was in the same situation as Winterborne, just too young to really understand what I wanted. For the record, I still have the ring. It wasn't expensive, and he didn't want it back and somehow it seemed weird to me to sell it.

    So apparently it isn't weird to have my old engagement ring hanging out in a box somewhere in our spare room. Thankfully my guy has like zero trust issues!

    Congrats, btw Sean! So exciting! I will want details when it finally goes down!!!

    Yeah, sorry. I just imagined myself as the guy and I'd be pissed.

    That's cool that you didn't sell it. You shoulda mailed it back to him.

    She didn't say yes, yet!!!!!!!
