16 some years
we met 16 or so years ago.

Lovers, best friends, we've been living together a good, oh, dozen of those years now.

There's been ups and downs and even some side to sides but...

I keep meaning to ask her, to make it official...

She doesn't seem to mind but...

I really should ask =)

Maybe next year? something quiet in the fall?

Maybe ask tonight?

hmmmm =)




What do you think?

Should I ask her out?

maybe even "go steady"?



It's such a big decision!

Bear this in mind
Not sure where it is, but reading one of the old QOTWs some time ago I came across a post by someone in exactly the same situation. They (or it might have been a friend) were living happily, not really worrying about marriage.

Until, one day, one of them was involved in a car accident. Pronounced dead at the scene.

It was then that a couple of things came to light. Firstly, that person's family didn't approve of her situation. Secondly, she hadn't made a will.

So the family took everything. Half the money, custody of their children, forced him to leave the house etc. etc.

Not even sure they let him go to the funeral.

If you're going to continue then please, please make sure you have all your affairs in order.

I truly hope nothing like that ever happens, but no-one can predict the future.

Ah but...
Could you live without her?
Then start putting off procrastination!
