I also have gossip, but it's nice.

Please to recall my brother and his girlfriend. They moved in together this week. What she doesn't know is that he has purchased an engagement ring for her. He plans to propose next month. This makes me happy. And unlike last time, this is a ring that required a deposit and pre-ordering. Also, he knows what she wants 'cause they discussed it.

Confession, though: He described it to me, and honestly, it sounds fugly as hell... kinda cluster-ish and busy. But hell, if she likes the ugly sht he bought her, great for them. I'm hoping he's got the male inablity to describe things accurately, though. I have to work on my "Oh, how pretty!" fake reaction.

Re: I also have gossip, but it's nice.

  • Wow! Let the record show that you called it.:)

    How long have they been dating?

    I'm sure it's cuter than he described(hoping).

    Good for them.

  • Aww! Sounds great. Well all of it except for the ring.

    .
  • They've been together for... I think 7 months. This sounds short, I know, but hell... they're both in their 30's and settled.

  • For my own selfish reasons, I hope there's some fvckery of some sort during the planning process. Is your MIL going to be invited to the wedding? ;)

    uh, hell no. Why would she?

    ..
  • No, that's the going rate lately. Y'all don't be surprised if I'm doing the same after 7-8 months.

     

    Do ya think you're going to be asked to be a BM?????

    She might have an inner bridezilla that's waiting to come out. We are so lacking stories lately.

  • Because MIL = drama = good Ww stories for us. That's why.

  • Ww, you know MIL is going to ask to come.

    I doubt I'll be asked to be a BM; she has friends of her own. This would not bother me at all, BTW. I don't know about any bridezilla-ness; she seems really laid back, but she *is* 33 and has been waiting to get married for a while. She may lose her mind in the excitement.

    We'll see, though. She may also be one of those "I have to make my SILs BMs to bring us together" chicks. That may not be good; having my sister and me as her BMs would be a bit much, I think.

  • YAY for WonderBro.  Please to be posting pics of the ring for us to judge, I mean, admire.

    *shrug* She can ask as much as she wants, but she still ain't coming. Not only would my brother say no, but I'd say no, and then DH would say hell no and lie to her about the location and date.

    ..
  • I hope my future husband knows that I will not be putting any sisters in my wedding party. NONE.

    I have a sister, and that's the only BM I need.

    I also need to put it out there that we will not be naming any sons "junior". Nope, not going to happen.

    Ha. I'll compromise on anything else.:)

  • Yay for happy brothers marrying good women!  If she has to have a fault, poor taste in jewelry is a better one to have around than say poor taste in personal hygiene.

    I just a friendly gal looking for options.
