Box Question:
For those who are married, or have been, or are about to become so, at what point in the relationship did you realize that marriage, to the person that you were with at the time, was what you wanted? What prompted the marriage? Pressure from the other person? A mutual desire to have a more legally binding relationship? A desire to get your parent(s) to stop hassling you? Ooooh! Deep question for a Monday afternoon. Guess it is when you realize that this is the person you don't want to have to go through life without. It's the person you want to share experiences with, it's the person you want to smack about the head when they don't put the garbage out when you asked them, but you know you still love them anyway. It's the person you immediately think of when you want to share some exciting news, or sad news, or need someone to lean on. I'm not sure if there is an "exact" moment in time that you realize this; maybe there is or maybe there isn't. I think it is different for everyone. It's a very personal and individual thing. For some people it's an immediate thing, for others it takes time to grow into the knowledge that "this" is the person. Having said that, the minute I first set eyes on Mr.Brit at a business meeting we were both attending, I thought to myself "hmmmmm, that's the man I want to marry" and lo and behold here we are! Married 19 yrs this year. But we dated for 4 years before we finally tied the knot.

Got home at 7:30am; Mr.Brit was a dear and picked me up from the station. I came home, put LittleMissBrit on the schoolbus, packed MissTeenBrit off to school for her mid-term, took a shower and took a 3hr nap!
All is good! |

I'm probably at that point.
teh Canuck feels much stronger about the institution of marriage than I do (she comes from a "normal" family, I don't) so up until the point I did it, I almost felt like it was a concession I was making for her. I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, I just wasn't so sure on the whole marriage thing. And then I popped the question, saw the overwhelming joy it brought to her and my heart swelled, not for her, but with her. I should clarify that before I proposed I had to reconcile with myself that I was doing it for us, not just her. Never do it just for her. Or just for you. Do it for both of you. It's kind of like jumping out of a plane. Until the chute opens and you're safely on the ground you question the sanity of the decision. Things were going so well, why risk mucking it all up. And then you do it, and it changes you. For the better. |
I have finally started getting around to uploading pictures from Praha
