This is one of my favourite comedy videos about marriage, mainly I think because it reminds me of my Grandad Milton!
Are you planning on proposing some time this year but not sure how to do it? Are you looking for something different other than he standard get down on one knee? Are you unsure if they will say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ and for this reason would like to put off buying the ring until you are sure? (OK, so this last question is not ideal, but lets be honest it happens…..)
Whilst browsing the internet this morning I found this charming necklace, It can be personalised with any message you wish. However, I thought it was perfect with the message ‘Marry Me.’ How cute, and what a great keepsake (if they said yes, of course!). There is a mini version (which is the one shown above) at a cost of £49, with the standard size costing £68-£80 depending upon whether you choose the gold or silver option.
We would be more than happy to be proposed in this way. Gone are the days of ‘down on one knee’ holding an Elizabeth Duke velveteen ring box. You need to stand out from the crowd and make a proposal that your chosen lady will remember for time. However you decide to do it, this would be a great addition.
It’s taken two years for me to reach a point where I am happy with myself. I found it difficult after my divorce and consoled myself with nights out drinking a ship load of alcohol and having sex with whoever I wanted. I found it was a way for me to control a part of my life and it made me feel wanted and desired, something my husband had never been able to do. Well for a time this worked. Every Sunday morning I’d have calls from my girlfriends wanting to know the details from the night before. Most of them now settled with young families, openly telling me their lives were boring and it was the only excitement they got. For a time I basked in the attention until one day I realised I was not getting the satisfaction I once was and I had become tired of being the weekly entertainment.
And so, I began to piece my life back together in a more stable way. As I see myself over the worst and definitely towards the end of the recovery process concentrate on myself preparing for the day that I will meet the one guy that turns my head and takes me off the market. Follow my stories of the hurdles I’ve jumped and the issues I am forced to deal with. I invite you to laugh and cry along with me (depending on my mood and yours) as we ride the divorcee rollercoaster!
