No idea how to react.

OP posts:
ImperialBlether · 30/06/2013 23:00

Who is he?

Do you have children together? Do you live together?

Is he nice?

lucidlady · 30/06/2013 23:01

How do you feel about the idea?

Sleepyhoglet · 30/06/2013 23:42

Well you either want to or you don't. I love being married. I am really settled. Some people don't need it.

PfftTheMagicDraco · 30/06/2013 23:48

I dont know how to respond when faced with such an overload of information.

ImperialBlether · 01/07/2013 00:00

You need some precis skills, Pfft!

AnyFucker · 01/07/2013 00:16

Somebody once mentioned murder to me

it fair shit me up, I can tell you

piprabbit · 01/07/2013 00:28

Who is he talking about marrying?

wannabeawallaby · 01/07/2013 00:37

JFDI. Or don't.

BOF · 01/07/2013 01:18

TLDR

ladyjadie · 01/07/2013 13:57

Ahahaha to some of these replies Grin

Lols aside, and I'm going to have to presume a fair amount that isn't mentioned in your post, is it too soon for you? How long have you been together? Has marriage crossed your mind? How did you react inside? Fear? Happiness? Rage?

PfftTheMagicDraco · 01/07/2013 14:29

I liked your "who is he?" Imperial. It's a fair question. If he's the boyfriend it's one thing. If he's the butcher, it's another.

Trills · 01/07/2013 14:35

He's her father. It's a conversation about her dowry. He has 5 daughters y'see, and needs to marry them all off because the estate is entailed to a cousin.

AnyFucker · 01/07/2013 14:58

I think OP is Rapunzel

ImperialBlether · 01/07/2013 19:11

It'd better not be Hugh Laurie who's asked you, OP. If it was, I will hunt you down.

Twattergy · 01/07/2013 19:13

He's a vicar, taking about his day at work

Twattergy · 01/07/2013 19:14

Talking

Anniegetyourgun · 01/07/2013 19:30

On the understanding that it's you he is talking about marrying (and I realise we can't necessarily make that assumption), there are several options open. However, if your first reaction was to head for Mumsnet to ask how to respond rather than shouting Hallelujah and googling venues, it's probably too soon.

Leave the bastard.
