s**t was already too bad at that point, but I was young_, so I threw caution into the wind.
:cool:

I've been with my girl for five years almost. Will be in October. Marriage is still a bit down the road. I'm 19, and she's 20. We probably won't get married until we're like 23 or so. All depends on finances.

Had an interesting series of events between yesterday and today.

This happened.


Haha. Oops.


Picked up the truck today from my friends shop. And got a tire for free from work.


$600 later it's all back to normal.

And todays lesson is you drink AFTER you drive :lol: Speaking of which, both of those sound good right now, and some food.

As far as the sappy stuff, was with someone for 4-4.5yrs before calling it quits. Her family was pushy on the marriage thing, not sure if being Viet had anything to do with it, but I wasn't having it.

Probably gonna take a s**t then go to bed. Tired of dealing with drama. I thought that was left behind when I graduated.

Haha. For real. The lady laughed when she saw her mailbox. And right after I hit it the mail lady was coming by.

Time for a Domino's run and bed. Have to get up early tomorrow :(

Yeah. I lucked out there. She was black too. So I was hoping it wouldn't turn into a scene from Jerry Springer.

I'm so hungry. No food in this house.

Honestly, there's a little bit of truth to what she said.

I'm waiting for Rob to pick me up from work since I'm still carless. This is such bullshit.
Idk which part of it you're referring to but that chick sounds like she just wants to get married because "that's what you do when you're in your 20s" which in my opinion is wrong. Marriage is an important part of your life. Im sure as hell going to take my time before i decide to spend the rest of my life with someone. And I'll be damned if a girl is going to "dump my ass" for waiting longer then 1.5 yrs. If she's going to dump me then I don't want to marry her anyways. Probably didn't really love me anyways and doesn't have faith in our relationship to be able to drop me like a hat. I just think this girls status is some horrible advice for other women.

Picked up my Breitling from having its yearly watch maintenance and cleaning done. I always hate having the jewelry store send it out but thats why its insured I guess. I missed wearing my watch.

Pics? :D
I f**king love watches. My father has a real nice chase durer, an old Rolex, and a couple other fancy watches. I don't wear my watch much these days. I'm always working and I can't wear a watch at work. Health code violation :/

I'd rock a watch all day and everyday if I owned a nice enough one. Save me from pulling my phone out of my pocket all the time

I got a Casio calculator watch, and it's the best. It saves me time, calculates s**t, and It even has an alarm. All it's missing is a back lit display.

Is she the one for you? Do you even stop and think somewhere out there, there is a girl who matches you better than this one?

We're a great fit but I'd be lying if I said I never thought about it. We're just taking it slow to see where it goes.

What happened?
Not entirely sure to be honest after this morning. He ripped the car apart and I'm throwing no new codes to be putting me in limp mode. He's tried 3 different ECU's and nothing is working. Here I am wanting to sell it, but I obviously can't sell it if it has problems. Well, I CAN, but I don't sell things like that.

I take care to venture well away from what average Americans do. I don't think 29 is necessarily 'old', I know someone that's 49 who's in a bit of a rush, and I can kinda see where she is coming from. It seems like you don't really get to know someone until about 6 months in the relationship, or that could just be me
I agree. My partner and I waited until 6 months to move in together, and even then we felt it was a bit too soon. We're now renewing our second lease together as of today. House shopping starts in about 8 months.

I dated for 6 years before marriage.

Which IMO is still not enough time when you start dating at the age of 16. :roll:

By 1.5 years a successful couple should be on the same path in almost every direction, and should know if that's 'the one'. Now that doesn't mean OMG LET'S GET MARRIED! Not at all.

I mean look back at our Grandparents (I'm talking about members around 25 years and older currently). Back in earlier times they would date for a few weeks to a couple months and BAM - marriage and 10 kids and a lot of those couples are STILL married if not dead today. Morals and values are also drastically different now too. People of that generation were taught and those teachings were enstilled that you work through issues, no matter what.

But yes, I do agree that 20's are a time for growing, and learning who you are. I'll be 31 when I'm married, and I find absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I don't blame you! Looking forward to the pics!

You wouldn't happen to have your concealed carry permit would you? I would if I had a watch like that for sure. :thumbup:

Exactly. Older generations found love pretty quickly, but I think that had more to do with a magnetism brought on from characteristics that just aren't prevalent today (Old-fashioned romanticism, people willing to go that extra mile to do what it takes to provide etc. There are still many like that, but not like it used to be.). My parents are pushing me to find a girl to settle down with. I imagine that has more to do with the fact that my sister is 39 and not married (although she's engaged, and they've been together about 10 years), and that they really want one of us to get married lol. Either way, I'm in no rush. I do want to get married, and I do want to start a family, but I'm a super monogamous guy. I want to make sure I'm truly in love with this person, first.

My parents were similar with me.
I'll be 30 in just 4 months and my mother was pushing me like mad to "give her grand-babies" b/c my 1/2 brother likes boys so THAT won't happen with him. lol
Theeeeeen I broke the news to the family that I 'got fixed' to avoid those grand-babies. Surprisingly almost everyone was in my favor once we voiced our very valid reasons why we don't want children, but everyone in my family said I'd be a great mother otherwise.

Times have changed so much. In the old days in order to 'make it', you needed to be married young, big families, strong ties. Now people are living longer, women are CEO's, and success is more important than family and marriages.
