Thought it be about time someone brought a bit of happiness to these boards so guess what, im engaged!!
Ok so its quite sudden as we've only been together nearly 3 months but it just feels right. my girl bought up the topic by mentioning she'd seen this engagement ring she liked, we talked and agreed that we both want to spend the rest of our lives together. yay!
Anyone else got any happiness to add to this thread?

I guess the closest I've got is that one of my best friends and her family have offered me a room at their house for half of my christmas break so I don't have to be at home for all of it.
What about all these threads you made earlier about her not wanting to be with you/confusion whether you're good enough for her etc.
Sorry, but I saw lots of really conscientious threads from you, and this doesn't seem a wise decision. Working at it for maybe 6 months and more then aye, that's a good foundation to see if the two of you can work through thick and thin. But you're still in the honeymoon period, where you're still getting to know stuff.
Also, it might just be that she fancies an expensive ring off you regardless if she has intentions of being married or not.
Madness.
Oh shut up newbie. You're here not even a month. Your views don't really matter.
1983 is a spectacular name. Plus, I'm not disputing being married is a grand thing. It is. But I don't agree with three months being a substantial amount of time to decide that that's person who you want to share all your flaws/life altering decisions with.
I'm not ruining the fun; if he's happy as larry it's only adding to the whole elation of being with someone who's as daft as him for getting engaged so early. Won't last.
If you re-read through his posts his girlfriend was really to and fro with their relationship. There was plenty ups and downs from what I read. He was really indecisive most of the time.
Three months? Come on. You're JUST getting settled then, not getting engaged.
Oh shut up, you cynical little ******* *****.
Oh, that's me told.
Trust me, I ain't gonna be the only one who thinks this.
Read these threads he made - all these worries about a relationship and not even three months in.

That sound like a good basis for a marriage?
Ayyyyyyye.
I was searching through his posts to prove my point, thanks.
But I know I'm right and not a ************************** whatever the hell that was. But you, mate, are a PLANK. Yes.
And ********************* to you too. See, I can be just as HARD.
No bother, petal.
thanks for the support from both of you :rolleyes:. you may be right you may not. most of my other posts about this relationship have just been about my paranoia really and im pretty much done with that now. If it doesnt last then it doesnt last. time will tell and she wont be getting the ring for a while yet anyway as the purse strings are rather tight at the moment having just quit my job.
Its more of a commitment to each other really and its made me happy that she feels strongly enough anout me to want to spend the rest of her life with me. Be happy for us or not i dont particually care to be honest i just thought the relationship board looks pretty depressing these days so i'd brighten it up with a bit of my good news.
If you think three months is long enough for you to get engaged, then it's fine. You know more about it all than we do, folks posts on here are only a tiny snapshot of their complete mindset, and you know what you feel. Some folk on here think they know better than anyone.
If it turns out to be a mistake, then you'll deal with it, and learn from it.
Good luck :thumb:

And? You sren't the only depressed person, y'know.
We got engaged after (just under) six months, sometimes it is right. Though I am dubious about people who get engaged so soon.
I wasn't being nasty (I hope) just...gah. Lots of people on here are depressed, it's not something that makes you unique.
Love will come when you're least expecting it, it always does. Love for me came when I'd pretty much given up on life...
It sounds awfully trite, but this place kept me alive way back in summer 2001. It honestly did, and it's where I met the delicious GWST.
This place is of great help, as it's a foothold. It's not real life, but what is real these days?
My friend got engaged within 3 weeks of meeting his spouse .. of course they're now married 2 years but always seem to be bickering when I see them
They probably have quite a strong relationship then- we bicker all the time, apparently. Though I don't see it myself...
