Ok, I sincerely thought everybody already new. I remembered making a thread about this last year when we got engage and I honestly thought everyone would have known by now. Maybe I just thought I had! Lol.
Anyway, people are being very pset with me, for not telling them! It was never intentional at all!
Last November, for my birthday I had a party. Just a little one, in a pub around the corner from our flat with some close friends and family.
Half way through the night, I'm outside quite drunk and smoking my face off, and I get called inside. I was a bit scared and thought oh god they're going to sing to me! Which they did, but then Dedly got up on stage and took the microphone. I was pushed into the middle of the room alone and had my handbag and drink taken off me. I got super suss at this point, almost afraid of what they were going to do to me.
I love my friends but they can be mean when they think it's funny!!
Anyway, he says "I just want to say happy birthday to my gorgeous girlfriend and tell her how much I love her. And I want to do something"
I'm thinking oh please god, don't sing. Tone deaf my Ded, absolutely.
He puts his hand into his pocket and jumps off the stage. Now there are steps off the stage which he could have taken but no. He jumped, landed flat on his arse with a boom. The whole room went quiet and he looked like he'd really hurt himself.
I said "Oh! Baby are you ok?"
He gets straight onto one knee and says:
"Shut up, shut up...Will you marry me?"
I say yes and everyone screams!
We got drunker and everyone came back to our flat. Of course by this point I've worked out that they ALL knew. All of them! even my Dad who lives in Poland, Dedly called him and asked permission!
Anyway, present day I wanted to let you all know we're getting married on the 13th of December. This December. So close now!
Apologies for the dissertation.
Love x
You might win one battle.
But know this; I'll win the ****ing war.
Aww thanks for the love.
It's much appreciated and I just wish we could afford a bigger wedding! And I could invite everyone I love.
But the ones I love the most are enough for me and they'll be there.
I feel good you know? Like I'm actually human again.
I'm genuinely starting to love me...
I'm getting so excited :)

“The good things don’t always soften the bad, but vice-versa, the bad things don’t necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”
“Nobody important? Blimey, that’s amazing. Do you know, in nine hundred years of time and space I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important before.”
“If it’s time to go, remember what you’re leaving. Remember the best. My friends have always been the best of me.”
Congratulations!
The wedding is just the party to celebrate the beginning. You'll have the rest of your lives together.
My husband is my best friend.
In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
Aww thank you all. So nice of each of you to reply.
Irene, we both seem to be doing pretty well.
And I'm not at the awesome'ness level you're hitting ;)
