it was the moment. we've already discussed getting married, but I'm traditional. He has to ask my father's permission first (smile)

but yeah-- i'm going to marry him one day.

ok.. well I get that...

so you're not counting that as him proposing?

not sure. it's not real to me unless you're on your knee with an engagement ring.

it was just an emotional night...

it's such a helpless feeling when somebody you know loses somebody. and i know that saying the things you said may feel like bullshit, but trust, the sentiment goes a long way. i've heard so many "i'm sorry"'s lately i could scream; at least yours meant something. you handled it well.

AND OH MY GOD j;adlksfja;dlskfjdas;lfjsad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all i could do was sit there and just allow him to cry... i felt so weak, you know? You want to say something, but you know deep down that nothing you say is going to take that pain away.

and i KNOW! I asked my sister if she thought my parents would be upset if i just eloped. I'm so burnt out on weddings with hers and my brothers, all i could think of was:
'i sooooooooooooo don't want to plan a wedding.'

but, yeah-- i don't consider it a proposal, i don't know-- it was one of those moments where you know someone is just so blinded by their emotions you don't know whether there is despondency behind it, or just ... emotion.

wow. i'm sorry to hear about his grandmother, and you are a superb person to do this, since you've said your relationships crumbled at anything "serious" well this is quite serious and you handled it great. sounds like he's a lucky man to have you by him right now.

heh- we both agree on that. because neither of us could see what the OTHER sees in each other.
(errrrrrrr... or something like that)

I just think we're both good people who deserve alot.

'She's going to be with your mother now...'
'She's going to be with her husband now...'
'She had a happy life..'

Not being religious myself...at least not Christian, I find it hard...really hard not to snort when someone says that someone dying is God's will. I think it's just more of a case of life being life. Everyone eventually dies, usually in a tragic way. To console someone with "It was God's will" is just wrong. That's telling the bereaved that he -should- be dead, and everything is better because of it.

What I quoted above, however, as a pagan I can identify with. An afterlife, reincarnation, the cycle, whatever you want to believe in.

Congrats on your proposal, even if it was only because he glimpsed the brevity of our lives. :D

i believe that too.. in an afterlife. something. a soul, just moving on..
I don't believe in God's will, unless the person was suffering. I don't know. I never really sat & thought about what I truly believe..

Eh, I still wouldn't say it was God's will, just that they are better off, or not in pain anymore...

I truly believe the Cards will win the Series this year.

holy wow....so much all at once!!!

he's a lucky guy to have u with him!!!

so what did u say???!!!

yes, of course... but i think considering the situation, we shouldn't rush into anything.

i do trust that we will get married... i just think he has a lot going through his head right now and he's thinking he's going to lose everyone he loves.

see, at least he grasps at his loved ones when in fear of losing them...i had an ex who pushed everyone away just so he wouldnt haveto get hurt if they went away.

it's crazy because after what aidan's father put me through, you'd THINK that's what i would do with people & for a while i did push a lot of people away.

i haven't felt any kind of *urges* of doing that with him...
