Well.....


On May 4th, 2005 I, Alarax(aka: Ron Washburn II) proposed to my girlfriend of 5 years, Alatriel(aka: Jennifer Jackson).


AND SHE SAID YES!!!!!


It was our 5 year anniversary yesterday. I recreated our first date. We went outside of town to the place i first brought her. There is a little lake and a river about a hundred feet from the lake, with picnic tables along the side of the river. There are many, many trees and wildlife all over the place.

Then, I asked, she freaked out and now we are engaged! Here is a pic of the ring: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v384/ ... heRing.jpg


(ok here comes the geek part :P)
Later in the day we came home and i told her i had a little supprise. and i will show you with some screenies. :D

OK as a married male for over 10+ years I will give you the same advice that my friends gave me after I popped the question to my wife... RUNNNNNN!!!!!! now!!!!!!!!! before its too late!!! as a husband though I would have to admit I can;t function without my wife and I wish you all the best! Oh and the second she tries to change you which ALL married women seem to do.. do what I did.. DON'T... if they can't handle who you are... they shouldn;t be handling you ;)

Awwwww....

It reminds me of when I proposed to my wife.. though without the virtuality, elves, or tux (though I would have loved that, too). Good for you! It's (almost always) great being married. I would do it over in a heartbeat... though at only 3 years married, I guess we're still almost newlyweds.

I am truly happy for you both.

I got remarried a little over a year ago and I couldn't be happier. So I am more of a newlywed then the yakster.

Unfortuantely I could not get the links to work for me I'll try them again later.

Congrats to you both!

Marriage is great but there's a good reason it's referred to as an institution. :P This July will mark 10 years for my wife and I and like those above, I'd do it again without hesitation. Joy multiplied and sadness divided and all that stuff. ;) Having a partner and friend always there for you no matter what comes up is an incredible strength to have on one's side.

Best of luck, Alarax and Alatriel!

BTW: what's that ring disenchant to? :twisted:

Those pics are great, man. Congrats to you both. I'm so excited for you guys. I couldn't be happier for you two.


And thanks for everyone who helped me get this stuff together in-game so Alatriel wouldn't know. Thanks for the donated money, time, and the rose.

Never got that kind of humor...

So does that mean that I should not respond to your gold-digger humor question? :P
