    Don't worry, the ball and chain isn't as heavy as everyone says it is.

    There are only three correct answers to any question that the above isn't appropriate for... "pretty," "smart" and "thin."

    Good luck.

    Don't say things like " I'm going to France to ski for the weekend, what are You going to do? or I've decided to ski bum for a few years, you had better get a better job." They frown on things like that.

    Congrats!

    Big step in the right direction Caddy.

    Mine isn't so much of a horror story but here ya go. My wife (at the time of this story girlfriend) had been dating for just over 2 years. I had already made several trips to the jewler to order the stone and work on a custom setting for the ring. The wheels were in motion. A few days before the ring was to be completed, my 'girlfriend" comes home, very upset. Her parents had been hastling her about if we were serious or not, were we going to get married, am I just afraid of commitment.
    First of all, I really didn't want to go over and ask her dad if I could marry her, but earlier on in our relationship, my wife made it clear that I "had" to. This enraged me, especially since I had already been planning the ring and all, I wasn't planning on going over and asking him for his daughter's hand in marriage before i had the ring. I told my 'girlfriend', I am going over there to have some words with your family. Which was shot down immeadiately. A few days later, I got the ring went over to the future in-laws, was a man about it, did my thing, they were happy. I could tell they kind of felt bad, especially after I told them I had to special order the stone and ring setting was custom and I had been working with the jewler for a few weeks now. They naturally assumed that I was going to ask that night. As revenge kind of, I waited a week with the ring before I asked her. Just to watch them stew in anticiaption, cause i knew it was killing them.
    Ok, so the big day comes, December 1st. It is 70 degrees in wilmington and sunny. Took her to a park, found a nice spot, asked her to marry me, her reply "NO SHIT". I take that as a "yes".

    This is the kind of BS that makes men not want to get married. No one wants to feel pressured into it. But if you can weather this stuff, it's all good. Well, hopefully, anyway!

    And congrats Caddy!

    hey retrospectively I can now say that my kids are helping me a lot in convincing their mom to go to ski all together
    also my suggestion is always TO INVEST A LOT in BEST GEAR for the wife. SHE will enjoy much more the time on snow and YOU'll have more time to spend on snow

    Thank you all, good stuff.

    13, was watching that the other day with GF, and laughing at that exact part, and she started going off saying it's the same thing that bridesmaids say, just a bit different.

    I plan to use the Regan bit in marriage, you know the whole, "where were you?" "Well, I don't know, well, well I forget, that I went to Utah and skied pow, etc, etc."
