<div class="bbWrapper">Just want to let everyone know that I got engaged last Friday! I had been struggling with this for some time but decided to give marriage one more try. She&#039;s a great girl and deserves the best and I think I can give it to her. Sitting on the fence allowed me to sit and be complacent about where I was coupled with my knee problems I was spinning my wheels going no where.<br /> <br /> I feel like I am back on the track after a wild long spin out. I cant explain it but I believe God will bless our union and the best years lay ahead. I know I may be on a lot of ignore lists due to my irreverant sense of humor and an inability to break through this latest glass ceiling. Or maybe my porr typing skills. I hope the next year will change that perspective. (well maybe just a LITTLE less irreverence.)<br /> <br /> My Step mother also died last week and she left me a powerful message.<br /> <br /> &quot;God hates a coward&quot;<br /> Couple this with my favorite saying<br /> &quot;if nothing changes then nothing changes&quot;<br /> <br /> Love and peace all<br /> <br /> Nick</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Congrats man. One more try huh, hopefully second time is the charm.</div>

Unfortunately I was not well experienced in relationships at the time. I have a much better understanding of what and why relationships work. We both have a lot of common values the most important being we believe that marriage is sacred.<br /> <br /> We also have similar past experiences and are knowledgeable in residential real estate. Now I just have to man up and be the spiritual leader of the house. Something I havent been doing lately.<br /> <br /> Seeing a possible bottom in the real estate market I need to hop back on that horse and ride it. We are already working together on this. But her tastes are expensive! LOl<br /> <br /> Oh and it helps to be in love too. I may be able to pick a better financial partner but I probably could never find a better life partner. I have a comfort about this decision that I never had with my first wife.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Congrats, my only advice would be not to &quot;try&quot; marriage as you say, but &quot;commit&quot; to it. Try implies a one-time event. Commit is a life long process. <br /> <br /> Congratulations, I think ill smoke a cigar on your behalf. =)</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I am very happy for you. You sound like you are in a good place.</div>

We both believe that marriage is sacred. She is catholic and does not believe in divorce. I just have deep spiritual beliefs about marriage that align with her religion. My first wife did not share this view.<br /> <br /> Tryers are liars, right? lol</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">you deserve all the best! congratulations.... I&#039;ll virtually join MJ and have a stogie for ya.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">All this talk about trying reminds me of that yoda line<br /> <i><i>Do</i>, or <i>do</i> not.</i> <i>There is no</i> <i>try</i>.</div>
