Oh my god, the basic story is... after dumping the last Chump... I got talking to someone via Facebook, who I used to go to Primary school with, he came down to see me and by date number 2, I knew... and thankfully so did he (otherwise I'd be like a right bunny boiler!).... there was no down on one knee moment, but I dont need that.... he said I could see myself marrying you, I said really? and he said yeah.... how about it!?
And the rest is history as they say!
We've only been together since 15th October LOL!!! And getting married on 14th March at City Hall, New York City!
Moved in together in December and have finally got broadband!!!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
