    Awesome, have any idea how your going to go about proposing to your significant other?
    I was never more nervous then when I went down on one knee to ask my wife to marry me. Those few seconds before she replied seemed to stretch out into an immeasurable amount of time. Was also acting wierd for two months before I asked, so says my wife.
    Anyways I never say congradulations early but best of luck and hope she says yes :)

    I just proposed over xmas. My advice is to keep it simple, from the heart, and private. Then prepare for lots of sex for the next few weeks, the just engaged sex is the best kind.

    Mamba..gratz on the victory and my condolences on the proposal. Hahaha really, I love being married, I can only hope you and yours find the happiness that My wife and I enjoy.

    And dont worry, no matter what you perceive your actions as being, so long as you are able to pull the ring out of your pocket, she will be unable to notice anything else.

    Is your wife the type to be embarrassed in a public setting for private things? Then don't propose in front of strangers. Does she want her family involved in everything? Maybe call her father and ask for his permission first. My Father in law said basically "Hey you're not marrying me, as far as I'm concerned it's up to her." I set up my camera to take a "X-mas card" photo, but it was really on a timer set to take 5 or 10 photos in a row with a 2 second delay. Then later, it was nice to be able to show her reaction to our immediate family and a few select friends.

    congrats Mamba! Agree that actual proposal was most nerveracking part.

    When I went down to one knee, I was so nervous my knee slammed into the ground and actually cut it open. I now have a scar on my knee from when I proposed :lol:

    I'll definitely do it in a private setting.

    I'm excited but trying to figure out how I'm going to propose is going to be a challenge. I have to coordinate with her niece. Her niece is the only family member that knows so far.

    In my day the woman nagged the man into marriage. Then they evolved some silly cover story about him "popping the question."

    That's beccause she knows she has your money and is simply cementing the deal.

    Seriously, why do you put on this big front about being a "player?" Do you really not want to get married? Do you really want to be single and alone, or just single and changing partners frequently?

    This thread isn't about me. Its about Mamba throwing away the beginning of the peak years of his life to get married too young.

    He's not a player, he just crushes a lot.
