Rules of Engagement

http://www.cellar.org/showthread.php?t=12270

1) If you need a magnifier to see the diamond, make sure she's not a material girl.

2) If possible, ask the father for her hand in marriage. It makes both dad and daughter feel good.

3) Try to find a romantic place to propose


That is all

4) No engagements with less than 6 months hard dating involved.

5) Be wary of anyone who refers to their last couple of lays as "my nth fiance/fiancee" who never actually got married. Your engagement will have exactly that much value.

6) Prenups are mandatory if you are marrying beneath you, loathesome if you are marrying up.

7) Proposal trousers should be loose fitting and comfy lest you burst out the rear seam in the process of kneeling.

8) Don't say "yes" just because he loves you - divorce will hurt more people in the long run

I broke all the rules, tricked my wife into saying yes then blackmailed her into sticking with it.
We are still married.
