Proposals

I'm going to propose to my gf soon. We've been dating 9 months, and we've talked about marriage at length. She'll say yes for sure. I never thought this day would ever come for me, but the love is so real. It's surreal. I'm going to the jeweller tomorrow to have the ring made, it'll look sort of like pic related.

Am I doing the right thing?
Any advice on organizing a wedding?
Am I crazy?

Don't let the silence to your thread throw you off. It's all just women hating trolls just being jelly.
>Am I doing the right thing?
I guess, do you feel so?

amazon wishlist everything
>Am I crazy?
Yeah maybe, usually people wait a year even if they are 30.

Thanks user

>I guess, do you feel so?
Yeah, I know the timeline is shorter than normal, but everything feels so right together.
>amazon wishlist everything
Is that a good place to register? We were thinking some department stores. Any tips on banquets/venues vs hotels?
>Yeah maybe, usually people wait a year even if they are 30.
We are both 26 (she's getting more baby oriented now and wants 4), the plan is to have the ceremony in late 2020, so well be engaged longer than we dated

Wait until you're together for at least 2 years before trying to head towards marriage. Dating for a minimum of 2 years of a proven to increase the chances of a successful marriage. Make sure you two have tried living together for a length of time. Dont rush into it. It's easy to mistake infatuation with real love and the results are often terrible. Only bad things can happy from doing it too early. So wait, and let it ripen like a good wine.

idk what to say, I'm 29 and I've never been in love. From an outside perspective marriage seems like such a gamble for no payout.

Some people like to start their own business. Over 50% of small businesses fail within 5 years. Because of that, I don't want to start my own business.
Do you want to start your own business?

Yeah, even with the baby fever, you should probably wait a bit more. You know that the doubling .5% chance of birth defects only goes to 1% right?

I don't think that's how it works, newfag

>Living together before
You know thats a predictor of divorce right?

How much longer? Won't a year and a half of engagement be enough?

> it's a predictor of divorce

It's not though. It's the literal opposite, user. We have many studies that show this. This is why relationship counselors recommend you try living together first because it increases the likelihood of not getting divorced. If you can't survive together before you're married you're just gonna make yourself, your spouse, and your future children miserable.
