Always a bride's maid never a bride....

I could be the cynic and say the bride thing isn't always what its cracked up to be

Personally I would rather have a well rounded, committed and loving D/s relationship. If you see one going spare let me know *laugh*

Pieces of paper, rings, ceremonies don't make a relationship work well as we all know.

Don't get me wrong I would like to get married again, but only if the relationship were all or most of the above.

I know you want it and I bet your time will come Wenchie. Keep the faith

Couldn't agree with you more. When I asked my Lady to be my wife I had no money for a "proper" ring. So I took the claddaugh I wore off my hand and put it on hers. Of course it didn't fit real well and she had to wear it on her middle finger. On our 10th anniversary I gave her the engagement ring She never got . It seemed such an important item to her friends. I'm sure she still has it although I have never seen it since that day, but the silver claddaugh still resides on that middle finger to this day.

We recently celebrated our 30th and became a little bit of minor celebrities with the local paper wanting to interview us for their people section. Of course the question was asked "What is the secret to a long marriage? I replied first there is luck, that you actually find your soulmate. Then it takes, love, honest comunication, understanding & compromise, and lots of incredible sex. The reporter actually told us she couldn't write that (yes we live in the bible belt) Then my wife and soulmate replied. . Then your readers will never know the secret now will they.

*nods* you just described my ideal relationship. And not just the secret to a long marriage...the secret to a long relationship in general i imagine.

Oh and with hindsight I would amend that to be the secret of a succesful marrigae or relationship. Since its possible for both to be long and drawn out and not fulfilling or happy in the slightest.

Though obviously its horses for courses and I know some of my friends who might not list sex as essential criteria. But for me it is a fundamental ingredient.

Yes! I love this. And it's true for us too. But I want to add just one more thing.

You have to stay together during the periods when you're lost and all of that is just a memory. My experience is that if it was ever there to begin with, you'll find it again with a little work.

Actually minxie, for once I wasn't babbling on about getting married. I was more thinking about a career path I once wanted, but decided that I wouldn't get to do the aspects that I really wanted to, so I dropped it.

And it's not really the wedding I want, nor even the marrage perse'. It's just that being with the one I want a very long drawn out relationship with full time is going to require it. But I don't even dream of the castle wedding I once did....I know! Queen of Everything Midival has given up the notion of a castle wedding in Ireland. It just doesn't seem important anymore.

but it was more my creative nature screaming for attention this time than my desire to get married again.

I actually caught your original post. I am bummed I did not respond immediately now! I was taking a night of sleep to stew on the idea. I am in the process of planning my own little odd wedding to my slave bunny. I could have used some of that creative input!

Well now I really feel silly. I reread what I posted and just felt very self conscience. That's not something that happens often to me, feeling self conscience about a post.

Maybe I'll revive the original thought after I've had some time to gather materials.

Well, if it gets your creative mind going...

I am working on a subtle BDSM themed ceremony (that won't freak out family) and that will take place at the dog park. The tricky part is the vows. And how to incorporate my dog. Oh, and how to do it for free! Heh.
