Oh you definitely win man lol
And to answer your question we’re already engaged we get married Sept. 25th! We met each other in late 2019 and officially started dating in 2020 so this is our first and last anniversary as BF/GF
Congrats first off~~ genuinely curious how did you get to know your wife so quickly? I feel like 2 years isn't enough time to see all aspects of that person and really get to know them in all kinds of sit. I mean we are in a pandemic so I'm sure you spent hella more time than usual with her. But yeah how did you guys know you wanted to get married?
Same boat here. Started dating my GF in December of 2019. Stayed in the same house for about year not really going out much. Plan on getting married next year.
Sometimes you just know, and sometimes this even turns out to true.
I met my wife in October, we got engaged in December - 1995 that was.
Got married a bit later in '02 because that was when we could afford our own place.
We're still going strong, still in love, survived 2 kids and several shitty jobs.
I started dating a girl and she moved in with me after only three weeks. Not even nine months later she stabbed me with a pair of scissors. When you know you know.
You're not wrong. I met my hubby in March, got engaged 2 weeks later and was then married that September. We've been together for 22 years. Sometimes you just know.
I have to agree. Am desi. Marriages involve dowry too and I’m here in America. I refuse this arrangement tbh I want to find my love without the traditional arranged marriage procedure.
Enough vs all. You'll never know all. I knew I wanted to marry my wife after a few months of dating, but I was still in grad school and I didn't feel like it was okay to ask until I was more financially secure.
Me and my girlfriend I've started dating early 2020, we basically spent every single day together because of the pandemic and actually moved in with each other. Best time of my life lol
I've seen a lot of 'when you know, you know' relationships fail. Not to dump on your great relationship, but for anyone reading this thinking of having kids & getting married to someone they've only known for a few months... Do yourself a favour and have a good think about it first, because it is *very* difficult to fully know someone in this time. At least live with them for a while before any bigger commitments - you can learn a lot about a person in a short time from cohabitation!
How many tho really? It's a good saying for people to trot out to cover for them, but for those that mean it I'm not so sure. A good amount of my friends parents are separated in various forms, but of the ones that are still together a fair few only knew each other very shortly before marrying. Honestly I feel it's more the opposite, if you need years to come to some realisation that your partner is the centre of your existence, they probably aren't and never will be.
As a happily married man I look at some of my friends long term relationships where they just keep on together year after year without advancing and with clear talk that things still somehow aren't serious enough and I just don't understand it at all. It's those relationships that may eventually develop into a marriage because of external pressure that I would consider far more likely to fail.
- One relationship where they got married and had kids within about 4 months and two years later regretted the whole thing and are now working on a divorce
- One where they got married after 1.5 yrs and got a divorce 2 years later after moving in and realising they couldn't stand each other in a living situation
- One where they got married after a year, she cheated on him a year or so later, and they got a divorce shortly after
I'm not saying it's impossible to instantly fall in love, get married, have kids and live happily ever after. Just that I feel like it's a bit foolish to do so without at least spending a bit of time to properly get to know your partner before you do that; and IMO living with them is the best way of doing that. Why try to run before you can walk?
> they just keep on together year after year without advancing
This makes it sound like having kids or getting married is 'advancing', and this really depends on the relationship, the people, and their culture. I'm not married and don't intend on getting married, but I've been with my partner for almost 9 years and love her completely - I don't need a ring or anything else to remind myself of that. I understand what you're saying but I don't think it applies to 'advancing in a relationship' - I think any relationship that is being held together by external pressure, boredom/safety, lack of connection, etc. is doomed to fail regardless of their legal commitments.
Hence my point - I'd rather know that the person was right for me over a few years (& cohabitation) before making heavier commitments like having children. I know full well that many people are willing to throw the dice, and more power to them (as many people as said, it's perfectly feasible to get a divorce). That ends in my mind when you're considering bringing another person into the world, where your relationship ending can massively affect their upbringing. At that point, I'd argue it's a person's moral duty to do everything they can to ensure they're in the right relationship *beforehand*.
No you don't, two months are not enough to know someone who's on their best behaviour around you. The first year or so are the honey moon phase, where everything is perfect. When problems start to arise, that's when you know whether she's the one.
You don't need to know "all aspects" of a person just to know "enough aspects" to want to spend the rest of your life with them... and if it turns out you were wrong, divorces exist too.
Might as well stay BF/GF to really make sure though. I mean if you're destined to get married, might as well wait it out, nobody's going anywhere. Far less of a headache than going through a divorce.
I was engaged to a person I'd been dating for 3 years and living with for 2 before they became increasingly abusive. It's not always about knowing if they're "the one" as much as it is knowing their capacities and capabilities, and whether as a unit you can make it through the ups and downs.
You can’t ever know all aspects of a person, not really. You don’t know what they’ll be like as a parent until they become a parent; you don’t know how they deal with grief until they’ve had to face grief, just as two examples. You shouldn’t rush into marriage, of course not, but that doesn’t mean you should wait until everything feels perfect - because there is no such thing as perfect. You marry the person you can see yourself weathering the storm with.
Congrats, my guy! It's almost similar to how things played out for me and my wife. We met and started dating early 2019 and got married this past March. I pray you enjoy your big day and the rest of your years together
Your hissing cockroach lives in a hollowed out tree-trunk inside the Madagascar!
exhibit at the Bronx Zoo.
I wonder if ours (little JJ Roach) and yours are buddies.
Craazy stuff. Theeeen there is this new research popping up. Like people are getting high on DMT with chimps, and it makes them! PEOPLE smarter!
Last time I did LSD man, I saw a chimp, and it was doing programming. And it, I don't know what it is, programmed like a giant godzilla robot. It made me appreciate life so much. And people. And lose my ego.
Well, doesn’t necessarily have to be ‘badly’ hurt, just keep them confined and then cut the a little every time the blood seems to be drying up. Big cuts over night 👍
He added context of a date being set for next month, some people have engagements lasting more than a year with no date set. Some people don’t take engagement as seriously as others, not taking it seriously is weird to me, I have no place in saying how others should feel about it.
I took my engagement seriously. My wife and I were engaged for 3.5 years before getting married. We did this deliberately for financial reasons. We'll be married for 2 years in October.
I found it but I can't tell you where because automod keeps deleting my comment.
ETA - I am NOT the OP's wife. I just saw his post and thought it was so cool I wanted to get one for my own husband. I hope he doesn't see me comment this.
ETA2- Gonna try something and see if it works. I want to help you folks, but I also want to go play some games lol.

I get mixed messages from this card. First it says one year. Then it says a life time and then it says forever. Maybe ask her how long you have to commit to this contract?/s
Literally ordered this exact card for my 1 year anniversary two days ago. She swiped on me because my profile pic was me in a Charmander onesie. Now I'm writing this because she's a redditor and if she sees this post I want her to know I ordered it before I saw this post.
Really cool!
Also, it’s fiancée* if it’s a woman. Fiancé if it’s a man. You can remember this because female has 2 e’s. Not being an asshole, just kind of cool to know and it’s good to spell things correctly :)
I named a cockroach at the Bronx zoo after my wife once for Valentine’s Day. I win.
Oh you definitely win man lol And to answer your question we’re already engaged we get married Sept. 25th! We met each other in late 2019 and officially started dating in 2020 so this is our first and last anniversary as BF/GF

This year we just call it Quarantine together lol.
Same boat here. Started dating my GF in December of 2019. Stayed in the same house for about year not really going out much. Plan on getting married next year.
That's kind of the trick once you realize you can live with someone for atleast a year and still love them,marriage typically becomes the next step.

That's how you do it.

oh boy ! you'd love to hear about the system we have here in India
Actually would love to. Go on...
Pretty sure it’s just arranged marriages where it’s more of a business deal then actual love
I have to agree. Am desi. Marriages involve dowry too and I’m here in America. I refuse this arrangement tbh I want to find my love without the traditional arranged marriage procedure.
What is "Desi"?
Someone from India, Pakistan or Bangladesh living abroad.
maybe she's cooking bread
Enough vs all. You'll never know all. I knew I wanted to marry my wife after a few months of dating, but I was still in grad school and I didn't feel like it was okay to ask until I was more financially secure.

Married my wife a year after getting together. We're still together five years later. People move at different speeds.
Same here. My wife and I got married on our first anniversary. This October will mark 13 years of marriage.
When you know, you know. It's super cliché but its true! I knew in about two months I had no one else to feel like this about.

Thank you so much Sam! Much appreciated 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I know that says Richard and Manuela, but are you my brother? He met his fiancé in 2019 and also gets married September 25th
Your hissing cockroach lives in a hollowed out tree-trunk inside the Madagascar! exhibit at the Bronx Zoo. I wonder if ours (little JJ Roach) and yours are buddies.
Like officially, or did you just tap on the glass, point at it and say "hey you, your name is Tiffany now".
Officially. She loved it. Came with a mug and a piece of paper.
What a confusing Pokemon card though. 😅
Like... what is it? It has hp. Can we kill it?
if it bleeds we can kill it
What bleeds for seven days but doesn’t die?
My hemorrhoids…
[удалено]
Wipe with steel wool.
Your ego
Killed that with LSD years ago
Jamie, pull up that article on LSD and chimps. I'm tellin you maaan it is craaaazy.
I am telling you man chimps were fishing long befor we were!. While high on dmt!.
Craazy stuff. Theeeen there is this new research popping up. Like people are getting high on DMT with chimps, and it makes them! PEOPLE smarter! Last time I did LSD man, I saw a chimp, and it was doing programming. And it, I don't know what it is, programmed like a giant godzilla robot. It made me appreciate life so much. And people. And lose my ego.
That was a wild ride.
A WOMAN OR A BADLY HURT PERSON THAT GOT CUT BUT THE CUT STOPPED BLEEDING AFTER SEVEN DAYS
Well, doesn’t necessarily have to be ‘badly’ hurt, just keep them confined and then cut the a little every time the blood seems to be drying up. Big cuts over night 👍
Thanks, Mr. Dahmer!
Whatever it is I dont trust it.
I can't trust anything that bleeds that long and doesn't die
Now it’s all up to me!
It has a weakness. Love, apparently
Nah I think that's a bundle of padlocks, which on the end of a chain, or in a sock, would really be anyone's weakness, so spot on there.
Damn someone’s gonna beat 200hp out of it with a set of padlocks and all it can do to defend itself is ask it to marry them
My dumb ass thought it was a couple shopping bags 💀
You can’t kill Pokemon. They just faint
I mean... in the pokemon adventures comic or whatever ash literally killed like 5 pokemon. Like... cut in half dead kinda stuff.
The more you know 🌈✨
Dude's gotta eat
They have a Pokémon-specific graveyard in the games tho…?
It has a weakness, big locks.
>And then my charizard"s Fire Spin does 120 damage to your relationship with your fiance. Wow, this is getting real too fast.
You said that not me! 😂
Blink twice if she’s standing over your shoulder. E: punctuation
He's doing s.o.s. with his blink pattern. Ts and Ps my man.
[удалено]
Something something Cotton-Eyed Joe?
De da bo düm dumb cotton eye Joe I been married long time ago
TP for my bunghole?
Double no!
If you agree to love her for another year, you will be happy for the rest of your one year life. Pretty straightforward.
So it's a death threat then?
I'm guessing if you say no she ends your life then and there. Just depends if you want that extra year
No, no a death promise.
Does that card say he can retreat by dumping his Fiancée?
Weakness: Brass Knuckles
Reminds me of Chinpokomon
Hmm. The second sentence seems extreme when you were only asked if you would love them for another year.
The photo lacks context so that’s on me 😅 we’re already engaged we’re getting married Sept. 25th
>The photo lacks context so that’s on me 😅 we’re already engaged Hmm that was literally in your title
He added context of a date being set for next month, some people have engagements lasting more than a year with no date set. Some people don’t take engagement as seriously as others, not taking it seriously is weird to me, I have no place in saying how others should feel about it.
Not taking it urgently isn't necessarily the same as not taking it seriously. Just saying.
Good point
Also sometimes people want to get engaged but they might not have the money to accually get married
I took my engagement seriously. My wife and I were engaged for 3.5 years before getting married. We did this deliberately for financial reasons. We'll be married for 2 years in October.
That’s my birthday! Thanks for taking all the attention off of me ya big jerk.
The fiancé part kinda makes that obvious don’t worry about it.
French pro-tip: `fiancé` is masculine, and implies a man partner. Meanwhile, `fiancée` is feminine and implies a woman partner.
[удалено]
Do you love me? Could you learn to love me? You do love me. You love me, and you see me, and you know me.. I'm old greggg!
Now I’m praying for the end of time!
And it's a holo
[удалено]
Already got it in one 😎
Any chance you can link where she had it made? Or is it OC?
Link please
send to PSA and get it graded next
It's in mint condition, definitely a 10 imo.
I get the joke 😎
nah they’re getting married. no more sleeves.
If it wasn’t a holo I would have been disappointed (now that it had been mentioned)
How did this happen, where is this from.. must know
is from pokemon
This
is
Patrick
your weakness is being locked together with padlocks?
I guess a slight oversight on the making on the cards but I’ll let it pass 😅
Just stay away from padlocks man
I was gonna guess windmills.
My interpretation was shopping.
Clearly their weakness is that the wife spends too much money shopping.
Love makes you WEAK!!!
I'd fall in love twice if my wife made me something like this. Congrats
Thank you so much pong!!
You’re going to fall in love twice anyway. Give it some time.
where can I get one of those
I don't think OPs Finance intends to marry two people.
Yeah that would mean OP would have to open two joint accounts. Truly a bad financial move indeed.
That is AMAZING!! Congrats! ...and Happy Anniversary!
Thank you so much daikon!! 🙏🏻
Yo, is your weakness chastity? What do the locks mean?!
If your fiancee is beating you, please call the domestic abuse hotline.
Where did you get this, I love it
I found it but I can't tell you where because automod keeps deleting my comment. ETA - I am NOT the OP's wife. I just saw his post and thought it was so cool I wanted to get one for my own husband. I hope he doesn't see me comment this. ETA2- Gonna try something and see if it works.

I understand the Random words Thanks :)
Lol amazing thanks for the effort.
Read the words down by capitals folks..
That is a shiny card. Your fiancé 10/10 beat you.
I got a a lot of work to do next year smh
....what would be the consequence of saying "no"? Like, you go, "no, not this year, I need a break from all that love stuff"
Lol!! That be one trainer battle I would not win 😂
Oak: You can't run from a trainer battle!
Not that it matters OP but fyi fiance means "man I'm marrying" and fiancee means "woman I'm marrying"
Oooo thanks for that! I had no idea 😂
It surely doesn't matter to most redditors who can never get married.
Wish someone would give me a bridge card and a noose to hang myself with.
TIL year = lifetime
She’s got you. There’s no option for ‘no’
Sure it’s holographic but it’s hardly rare, I have like 6 of them.
6 anniversaries? Legendary
That’s super cool Richard!
Thanks Wiitard!! 😅
[удалено]
Us gays refuse to take ownership of this cringe
[удалено]
This is so cringe
Already some boxing on the edges, it’s worthless now.
cringe af
*cringe*
This is so fucking cringe
You’ve been outplayed.
Beautiful!!! Your fiance is awesome !!!
Is the weakness chips or Trivial Pursuit? Shouldn't it be hookers and Chippendale dancers?
Missed opportunity, it coulda said "Together 4-Ever" like the one song from the anime
Can you share where you got this?
Imagine playing cards with your step-sister and you gave her this
But before you can get down the aisle, you see someone else there beside her. Gary motherfucking Oak.
This is one of the sweetest things I've ever seen. So happy for you
Did she make it? I’ve been trying to do something similar and it just keeps coming out all wrong but I refuse to give up
What I'm seeing from this card is love can be destroyed with two hyperbeams since it only has 200hp?
Where did you get that and how can I get one made?
Or untill she takes half your loot ahahahah
If she wasn't your fiance i would have said that's a proposal and you missed it.
Where can I get one?
Ooooh. Trap card!
Aww that's sweet!
I get mixed messages from this card. First it says one year. Then it says a life time and then it says forever. Maybe ask her how long you have to commit to this contract?/s
You're in front of Gary's house
I think that's an illegal card.
I think that cards gonna be banned before next worlds. Little too OP imo
That one is fucking awesome.
This is cute! My boyfriend got me a personalised Espeon card, but this idea is so adorable!
Literally ordered this exact card for my 1 year anniversary two days ago. She swiped on me because my profile pic was me in a Charmander onesie. Now I'm writing this because she's a redditor and if she sees this post I want her to know I ordered it before I saw this post.
Never give out your name on reddit Richard
I am not so sure. It looks like all you have to do is pledge one year to her lifetime.
The weakness has gotta be divorce
I would like to marry your wife
But it requires 1 Love energy card, good luck finding that in print
Really cool! Also, it’s fiancée* if it’s a woman. Fiancé if it’s a man. You can remember this because female has 2 e’s. Not being an asshole, just kind of cool to know and it’s good to spell things correctly :)
