Go for it!
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Punishingly Intricate
I married the first guy who asked, but I don't think I've ever thought of it that way. I always saw it as marrying the only man I ever wanted to.
Likewise.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I think I talked marriage with a few ex boyfriends, but I never seriously entertained the idea with anyone other than DH. DH thinks it is weird that the only relationship I had over 6 months was with him, but I knew the other ones weren't long term.

The first guy I asked gave me a bloody nose. But that was kindergarten and wouldn't have been, you know, legal.
The second guy I asked said "yes." I should have waited to be asked and then I should have said "no." Ah, well.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Me too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I've been in long-term relationships, but I never seriously considered marriage in any of them. No one's ever asked me, either.

Teppy, you and The Boy must have those!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Congratulations, Connie and hubby!
Teppy, those are, indeed, awesome Save the Date cards.

I didn't marry the first guy who asked me. But I married the right one.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I didn't marry the first guy who asked me. But I married the right one.
Yupper-do.
