I don't believe in buying wedding stuff before the wedding, heck I didn't even buy bridal mags LOL but in saying that best of luck to them, hopefully she ends up happy.



smurfs I know stuff like that can bug people but try not to take it personal.



I am on the other end of the spectrum where FI and I were together 10.5yrs (we meet when I was 1 before getting engaged and had people will stay stuff even then about why your not married and what not, but what people fail to take into consideration is how young we were and now we are at about the age people START to think about settling down.



When we did get engaged (newly engaged) we had people ask us if we were going to be one of those couples that dated each other for like 10 years got engaged and then broke up

?



Yah you can't win.

Dee, that's terrible! I can't believe someone would say that to you when you have just got engaged!!!!! Although I did have to point out on occasion that NO I WAS NOT PREGNANT! WE ARE JUST GETTING MARRIED NOW!!!!


Anyhoo, just enjoy that incredible feeling of being engaged. And know deep down that there is something special about waiting so long! Knowing that you have stuck it out this long, well it's just something you have to experience to understand. The joy and satisfaction of knowing you have a rocksolid relationship that you have put time and effort into, and that it has already stood the test of time. You should be proud of that! And stuff what everyone else has to say - they are probably just jealous of your Leon!!!

I must admit, I was very proud when we went to sign of marriage license and the celebrant was telling us the 50% of Australian marriages don't even last 3 years, and I was like - well, we have done that 4 times over already!!! I think we are good!!

URGH some people have no clue, I can't believe someone said that to you???? I swear people sometimes just don't think. One of the people who said it to me was an extended family member when we were traveling OS, I didn't let me bother me that much I just chalked it up to the peoples lack of filter LOL.

I think the same way you do, (not that there is anything wrong with getting married sooner either) we do have a really solid base thick or thin we are in together forever baby

As for the Leon well I have gotten stupid comments about that one as well, but again I don't care I love it and she is all MINE
