i think the divorce rate is higher now because there is more freedom to seperate when the relationship isn't working out.

this is because:

1. Women don't have to sit there and take it anymore.

2. People are less religious. So they do not feel like they have to llive a life of misery or they are going to go to hell.

i live with someone and i like the way we live

she has her own life and so it goes

my better half doesnt harp on me about my life

and neither do i about hers

if we do decide to talk about the past

it is civil and short

thank god for that

she gets along with my cat

and i really like her dog

when we get into a fuss

we both shut up and go ouside

she watches the sunset and so do i

maybe from a different perspectve

yet we do see the same event

i did ask her to marry me awhile back

and she said no

it could have been a rejection

yet i treated it as a statement of belief

we are not in love with one another

that may or may not happen

but she knows me and i know her

and thats fine enough

living together or married

my commitment is the same

Well, the living together thing looks like a very real possibility. We've bought a few pieces of furniture together and we've discussed finances and budgets and all that fun stuff. Haven't looked at apartments yet, my lease isn't up until the end of March, but we've talked about what we want in a place together.

It's kind of scary when you realize it's actually going to happen. I told him we could move in together but I still want the question and a date set. I'm thinking 7-7-07. How's that for lucky? We'll have to buy lottery tickets for that day.

Watersedge,

Don't get this at all. You are not in love with someone, but you know them, and that's reason enough to ask them to marry you? Can understand why she may have said no to your proposal.

Good for you, batcave!! Awesome! I'm tickled for you. And, 7-7-07 sounds like a PERFECT day to me. :love3:

Tell him the question asking has to be especially romantic and special cause you deserve it (and you have a friend who's going to live it vicariously through you :biglaugh: ).
