As the subject states, Sweden’s sexiest Doperette (sorry **Soda** ) and I are no longer dating. That’s because, as of 23.50 on Tuesday 20 March 2001, **Anniz** and I are engaged. 🙂

We’ve been discussing this for a few weeks, and we’ve already started preparing for our wedding, which, INS-permitting, will be sometime this summer or fall (… or next winter …). So, it was no real surprise to her when I popped the question. There’s no ring, alas :(, as I can’t afford one now in my state of unemployment. But, I did promise her one someday, and I know she’ll take me up on that in the future.

And I won’t mind, because I love her. 🙂

Congratulations **Montfort** and **Anniz**! That’s absolutely smashing news!

(Even though I did freak out a bit when I first saw the subject line… It’s not nice to try and trick your fellow Dopers. 😉 )

_shriek_

AAAHHHHH!!! That rocks!!!

(And I’ll admit to being freaked for a second by the subject, until I thought…“Did he ask her to marry him?” :))

Next DC Dopefest, first round’s on me. 🙂 Congrats, you two.

Rah! Rah! Rah! Yea! **Go** Fair kindreds, **Anniz** and **Montfort**.

Good luck to you both!

Isn’t it interesting how manny couplings (of the long-term sort) we’ve seen here?

Again, best wishes, y’all!

I think dating people you meet over the Internet is unnecessarily dangerous and no one should ever, ever do it. Wading through smoky bars is the right way to meet people.

Congrats, you two! Hey, where are ya gonna do the deed? I figure if I can’t meet you guys at a Dopefest, the least I can do is try to finagle an invite to the wedding…

After reading the thread title, I damn near had a heart attack! I’m really happy for you two, but don’t you ever scare me like that again 🙂

Congratulations again!

And good luck to both of you. That rocks! - I’m so glad for you.

Oh, and Montfort: I have my reasons to consider that thread title in very poor taste. If I wasn’t busy being happy, I would’ve had to whup your ass.
