I am not sure how to commemorate with a present. I talked about it, but she said last year can’t get better.
Last year I said I was going for bird feed and groceries, came home with a bottle of wine, bonbons and a big ass vase filled with 24 flowers and presented the gifts in stages ‘ooh yeah forgot this one’. She was already happy with the choco.
One hand shopping bag, other arm vase and flowers because it did not fit in a bag walking home on icy pavement, I don’t have a driver license so had to tread carefully, could have broken the vase, my legs and neck.
Maybe I’ll finally go on my knees and ask her to marry? We argue sometimes who should propose. I just don’t want to jinx our relationship.
If you’ve been together for 25 years you practically are married, it’s just paperwork at that point.
We already call eachother husband and wife often. I guess it is not that important to us, but we joke sometimes about who will kneel first. Maybe we could make it something fun. It would be just a few people around though, nothing fancy.
Lol ya exactly, you could make it a ridiculous show of doing paperwork, like a comical version of doing your taxes (idk if you are in the US but our taxes can sometimes be crazy)
In my state, you’d be considered common-law married. Might as well get married-married. If you both want it, that is.
Think hospital: “Sorry, family only”. Do it before you need it.
I mean it sounds lame and beurocratic af, but that paperwork does come in handy for medical and legal issues. Say one partner were to become incapacitated and medical decisions needed to be made on their behalf for example.
Ya ya, definitely, you can get partnership agreement notarized that basically accomplished the same thing though
