My fiance dropped to his knee after saying the mushy stuff. I think that is typical ... Agreed it doesn''t matter so much what you say. Once she figures out what you are doing, she will barely be listening! |

I think it is pretty dead-on that 2 years is the sweet spot ... I actually always sort of intuitively figured that IN GENERAL that amount of time would give you the highest probabiility of success. People who get married too quick often don''t know each other well enou... |
