**Montfort** , I’ll let that 3 seconds where my heart dropped when I read the subject line slide by… just as long as you don’t do that again!

From someone who knows all the ups & downs of a long-distance relationship, I give you all my best wishes and blessings for a long, happy life together. The both of you make a beautiful couple.

You know, I saw this thread for days and didn’t want to open it, because I’m terrible at offering condolences. But, since my morbid curiosity eventually got the better of me, let me say that I’m relieved and happy for you both. Congratulations.

Saw the thread title, and thought, “This had _ **BETTER** _ be an engagement announcement!”

Glad to find out that it is - congrats and hugs to the both of you, and best wishes for a long and happy life together!

Oh, and the ring…I could loan you a two-bit ring from a crackerback jox…😉

For days? We’ve only been engaged … 17hours and 6minutes as of now. I started the thread a little after midnight last night/this morning, so I have no idea what time machine you have, or if you’re reading this on Mercury.

In any event, thanks again everyone. We went apartment shopping today, and we decided we like where I live presently the best.

Add another to the steaming pile of people who “knew” you’d be saying “anniz and I are engaged” and was secretly hoping against hope that’s what you were gonna say:) [sub]Hey, if you told someone you weren’t dating anymore, there’d be two possible options, right? RIGHT?[/sub]

Best of luck to both of you.

Last night to this morning - that’s 2 days, right? It’s 2 separate dates, isn’t it?  
I’m a jackass.

I saw the thread title and said “Huh?”

Then I said “Naaaaah. Maybe they eloped or something! Cool!”

Anyway, Congrats to you both! This truly is wonderful news!

(I used to know some Swedish–I spent a month in Stockholm mumblemumble years ago–but I don’t remember the Swedish word for congratulations. So I’ll just say skol, and I know that’s spelled wrong too, but I’ve got an American keyboard. At least know my heart’s in the right place. :D)

I, also, had guessed what the thread title meant, and am pleased to see I am right.

Congratulations!

What is this, the week of the US-Euro Relationship Program? Is this some sort of diplomatic endeavour I was unaware of? What’s next, aha and BornDodgy? 😉

Sincere congratulations and best wishes to you both.

Cous’, you are an inspiration to me. If you want to know why (and what **Coldy** is talking about above), just check out [this reply](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=1207530#post1207530) in the thread about my recent trip to Amsterdam.

_sigh_ I hope we’re always as happy as you two are. I may be asking for tips on how to keep from going crazy from being so far apart (5654 miles - yikes!!).

**Anniz** and **Montfort** , all the best for a happy, love-filled future!

The very best wishes to you both!

How nice to hear of this happening at the boards. You didn’t have me fooled for a minute with that weasely title **Monfort**!

I have a few Nikon cameras and have done a wedding before with great results. (The couple prefered my photos to those taken with a Hasselblad!) If there’s some way to swing it, I’m game for a trip to Vegas.

So let me know if you still need a photographer. If I have enough advance notice I might be able to pull it together. We may have to have a very brief Vegas Dopefest to celebrate, but that is up to the two of you. I just can’t think of a better reason for dopers to get together (as it were).  
PS: **Anniz** , stør kram til deg!!!

Congratulations…I’m sure it was the deep conversation and glowing personalities from the Lunch Bunch that convinced her to accept. She needed someway to stay here legally and be close to us. 🙂 Where are you going to live? Rockville or Sweden?

By the way, remind me to hit you next week for your title.
