How weird I just used this answer for another question, so here you go:
My husband actually proposed by giving me a copy of this book with the following about marriage highlighted and one about love
Ive written the marriage one down.
What of marriage master?
and he answered saying
You were born together and together you shall be forever more
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Aye you shall be together even in the silent memory of God
But let there be spaces in your togetherness.
And let the winds of teh heavens dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each others cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf
Sing and Dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone.
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each others keepings
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts
and stand together yet not too near together
For the pillars of the temple stand apart
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each others shadow.

He Didn't propose, his parents wouldn't give it a rest. Everytime we met his parents and grandmother., would the wedding march come on. Every single time, they saw us, it was thrown in my face. This went on for 8 years, until I finally agreed, because I wanted my [new daughter] then aged 6 to have a mother with her name. We love each other of course, but you don't need a marriage certificate to show our love. Reason I was so hesitant is cos I went through a bad divorce, so don't automatically think I'm bad.

I asked my wife in the parking lot of Zayre's (that's a department store like K-Mart to you folks who don't know).
How's that for romance huh? Guess what? Twenty two years later, a nice house, good job with pension and bennies, 2 dogs, a dumb cat, grandkids and ready to retire.
Who needs romantic sunsets and ocean waves crashing. I've lasted longer than most of 'em.
Laugh that one off!

I asked my wife in the garden of my parents house on the night my brother was having his after wedding party. Not romantic but we have been married now for 23 years. Your very lucky and I hope you will be very happy.

In Hyde Park on my birthday. We went to feed the ducks, even though it was raining and he went off to put the rubbish in the bin. Then I heard him say my name and there he was, one knee in a puddle with a princess cut solitaire.
The first person to congratulate us was a passing tourist who hung back until we were done - nice guy.
It was lovely, plus a great story to tell the grand-kids!

He never did and I seriously can't remember why we got married.. it was just the thing to do at the time and happened automatically.

Why do you want to know, it's not as if it has anything to do with you is it?
Wrong, you have no right to make personal comments about me or anyone else on this or any other site. I've been happily married for over 10 years so get a life and ask proper questions rather than dumb mushy ones!!!
Oh i've reported the asker for chatting and personal communication! Lol
