Very much not needing a resident answer but I am bored so .... Tonight I propose to my SL Girlfriend. The plan is a slap up meal at somewhere costing me an arm and a leg then on to a Jazz Club. I have Proposal Balls in one pocket and ring in the other. She came onto SL not long ago to tell me she can't go out until about 90 minutes time (00:30 PST). So I now sit in my new garden while reading these Forums dressed up in my Tux and ready to go listening to, "Easy Listening" on the Media dreaming my life away. Will she or won't she? I think yes or I wouldn't ask. I'm not asking for any answers from you on that question of course but if I get time I thought it might be kind of nice to update this posting from time to time if she has to sneak off somewhere for 5 minutes. Don't be surprised if you don't hear from me at all until she has gone to bed  The truth is that I am as on edge as a sheep in a mint sauce factory. Andrew Bailey (Alt) |

eeer, assuming you wanted this to be a surprise, announcing it in an open forum may not have been the slyest move. Good luck anyways |

Not everyone reads the forums Half of SL don't even know they're there. Could also be posting/proposing as an alt. Good luck! Take lots of snapshots - I'm forever forgetting to do that when important things happen Well, if she says yes anyhow... Actually, I suppose you could even if she doesn't, it'll give you something to weep gently over through the cold lonely ni- um, sorry, where was I? Ah yes - good luck! |

*laughs* SL has such a brilliant sense of timing. Our sim once went down literally five minutes before the opening party of my very first ever venture.
*kicks SL* Let the man do his romantic thang!

From: Hotspur Otoole What actually happens when you get married in SL? Prim babies, and then typically, in about four weeks, divorce. But seriously, if you use the Second Life Partners program, it simply lists your partner's name in the Partner box on your 2nd Life profile. That's it. No tax breaks. |

No tax breaks. the first part of your comment WAS serious hehe - that is generally what happens. Whatever happens to the prim babies in a divorce - im thinking most just kinda "poof" |

Yes

Short version SHE SAID YES Long version The evening started with a meal at the Sublime Restaurant. She knew I had a surprise for her so of course she kept asking what it was. After that we moved on for a dance at Jade's Jazz Lounge, after some time downstairs we moved upstairs. We sat on the proposal balls from Bits and Bobs cleverly labelled only him and her, I went down on one knee proposed, she said yes. Had a few problems getting the ring out of the box so to speak so that will happen tomorrow. Two very happy people. Thanks for the comments. Yes I do have a pile of pics. I'll stick them on my website tomorrow so you can see how things went. Two incurable romantics to feel sick over but right now I really don't care I'm still busy trying to figure out a way to climb down from cloud nine Andrew Bailey and Mirina Usher
