From the Archive - Glastonbury: Sean's Blog - Day 2
I'm much more of a giver
so if you are willing to compromise...
who to?
me i do
One day maybe..
..I would do it for the woman I was with, although I wouldn't feel the need to personally.
marry me......
......pretty please
Ok, since you asked nicely.
;)
my mum's been married three times...
so i don't find the whole thing particularly 'magical'. or with any point at all.
my dad 4 times
can anyone trump this?
fortunately no!
which marriage were you the product of?
Haha my Dad just finished his 3rd Marriage
I have siblings from every marriage.
Gets a little confusing.
that would be confusing...
my mum only had kids with one of her marriages...
although i have plenty of step-siblings to confuse matters.
it is...
The worst was my mother also remarried and had more kids. I have 3 brothers and 3 sisters (all half) as a result.
i'm from the second and longest
I'm also from the 2nd
Yay for us.
me too.
although no. 3 is catching up in length.
yeah number four should be catching up soon
i think. maybe. i'm not sure. she's great anyway. although ill right now :(
oh no :(
mine is too oddly enough... and he's awesome too...
PARRALLELL LIVES, BSOUCEK
Totally,
though i don't see engagement happening for another couple of years yet
i do!
but i'm not looking forward to the wedding part. the idea of spending a whole day with my extended family seriously stresses me out.
^ and this.
i might have to not invite my dad.
yeah my dad wouldn't bother going anyways!!
so that wouldn't be a problem for me.
the whole idea of spending a shite load of money on a wedding..
which you leave halfway through...
to me is pointless. letting all your mates have a massive party on your account, drinking all your booze and food, whilst you fuck off on a honeymoon? stupidest idea ever.
Do what I did.
Go somewhere so far, far away that extended family can't afford to fly out for the day.
who with?
ill get married
but i really want to marry a jolly toff like raef from apprentice
me too
he's such a dremaboat no?
he is amazing
our wedding would be fabulous
you've heard him spaek tho, right?
of course
he is a politely spoken gent. whats the problem?
oh nothing,
you go get married pet
OK!
you can be in charge of the guestbook if you like
Mirri
That's very very clever.
I do, and I want an indie disco and my first dance to be either Outdoor Miner by Wire or This is the Day by The The followed by an ace indie disco and either a nice barbecue in a big garden or perhaps a haggis neeps and tatties fest in a village hall if it's winter.
The idea of seeing my auntie dance to The Fall is something I definitely want realised.
As you can tell, I haven't given it a lot of thought or anything.
:)
I didn't get much choice though. The future mother in law was such an horrendeous woman that neither of us wanted her there so we told EVERYONE, including my own family, that nobody was invited to the wedding (in Barbados, and therefore also share the honeymoon, can you imagine?!).
It worked well but I did cry five minutes beforehand because I wanted my family there and my sister called and made me cry.
waterproof mascara
FTW
dont you need a witness
at the wedding?
I think there are more than 2 people in Barbados
zinnnnnnnng.
i thought they had to know you though?
nah
people get their friends and family to do it normally cos its nice to involve them, but it can be strangers
Heh.
The witnesses were included in part of the wedding package.
me.
i want a big fuck-off wedding that gets me heavily in debt. and then plenty of kids to do the same.
What ever happened to the good old days when proposals were face to face?
Where's the Romance?
Romance died with txt messaging
and web 2.0
nope
no kids for me either
i don't want kids either.
i wonder if people get proposed to..
...via txt message.
i bet this happens these days... sigh.
And is it in text talk:
318
Pls mry me?
Need divorce paperes first. Only 6 weeks now..
...
not me
i would be a terrible husband and probably a reckless father. but we shall see.
Not to you (no offenc)
Maybe one day. Too young at the moment.
only if i can get the national to play
i love that album cover so much.
me!
how many kids? Oh yeah, OHAC? annual income etc?
but yes
i intend to get married sometime
when i was a kid..
i thought i'd be married with kids by the age of 25....
and then i grew up and realised that's a very preposterous idea. maybe when i'm in my 30's??
when we were kids
times were different, innit.
i dont think marriage ages can continue to increase ad finitum. i think they shall rise and fall cyclically. life expectancy will continue to increase i guess, which will raise marriage age, but maybe technology and society will make it easier to raise babies young. WHO KNOWS.
it's not black and white though.
because these days you have the extremes.
teenage pregnancies.. (and celebrities seem to follow this trend... married with kids by 21....)
and then you have the other group... marriage and kids not on the cards til later on.. 30's or 40's..
i have revised my 'marriage plans' to:
when/if i find someone i want to marry, then it'll happen then. if i never get married, then that won't really bother me.
true
there's something of a class/wealth/whatever divide, as well as localised divides.
and you change your plans, but, not wishing to be a massive sexist, women are known to suddenly have immense desires to be With Child. biology aside, it's got to be nice to have someone to grow old/be old with. or you end up going insane in a home
certainly class/wealth divided
although the whole celebrity phenomenon is a bit of an anomaly. as they are currently more likened to the behaviour of lower class chavs. hmm... (generalization!)
as for biology. i can't see myself ever wanting kids. All my girl-mates go gooey over seeing a baby. and i can't stand them.
definitely want to grow old with someone though!
i dont think id mind too much being alone when im old
as ill have mr valium and mr cocktails for company
Yes
Though I can't see it happening anytime soon. I feel like I'd be officially be an old guy if I got married, and I don't want that at all. I'd have to have been going out with the person in question for quite a few years beforehand too, no spur of the moment stuff where marriage is concerned.
i don't understand people who can get married within months..
definitely would be waiting years...
A girl I used to go out with
nearly did this. She moved to New York, met a guy and 5 months later they were engaged and set to get married. At the last minute she moved back to the UK and pulled out of the whole thing, which could well be the best decision she's ever made. I can't contemplate doing something like that at all. I'll probably be in my 30's by the time (if) I get married.
isn't she the one..
..you bumped into recently... and things were possibly gonna pick up again?
Well remembered!
Yes it was her. I went out a few times with her to various things, but I'm not convinced its going anywhere. Again, probably bad timing. Think maybe I wanted it to happen more than it was actually going to, just with the surprise of seeing her again.
I'm still really good friends with her, but I very much doubt were going to go out with one another. Which is fine. I'm moving soon anyway, and I'm fairly happy being single.
ahh that's cool... as long as it's amicable, that's good :)
yeah timing is a bastard though aint it. everything is about timing!
It is! You were right!
I've had enough of trying to make things work for the meantime. I'm just going to let stuff happen. Until that gets me nowhere, then I'll start trying to make things work again.
I certainly want to get married
fo sho....i'll also be an excellent dad I reckon if I do say so myself.
