Jayar Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Right now, it sounds like you are WAY more interested in your truck than a kid. And you know what? That's fine! I think it's very cute. I think YOU are cute in that one of your longest posts has been about all the great things you did to your truck. I think it's very appropriate that, as a 17-year-old, that is the one sentence in my post you chose to respond to. I love trucks too. Just don't make a baby. What will you do if the baby pukes in your truck? Link to comment
glegend Posted October 25, 2006 Author Share Posted October 25, 2006 What will you do if the baby pukes in your truck? Seat covers. so if the baby pukes in the truck me or my girlfriend can just pull off the seat cover and wash it. Now if it is on the floor then use rubber floor mats. Link to comment
glegend Posted October 25, 2006 Author Share Posted October 25, 2006 Exactly. And although I know your parents got by on only a small income, you probably have no idea how hard it was for them. To tell you the truth back then when I was a baby or even when I was 7 and my sister was a baby, it was easier for my parents to start a family as opposed to now. How you may ask, the answer is simple they had more dispossable income. My mom worked so did my dad, only difference is that my dad had an accounting job and he would do side jobs after work and weekends every now and then to make a some extra ca$h (which there is nothing wrong with that, is there?)

glegend Posted October 25, 2006 Author Share Posted October 25, 2006 Right now, it sounds like you are WAY more interested in your truck than a kid. Well my truck is like my "baby". It was left to me by my grandfather so it has its own sentimental value to me. So thats why Im interested in it so much besides my girlfriend. Cause its the only thing I have to remember him by.

InaneCathode Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 There's something totally absurd about the way you're treating this issue glegend, the big deal isnt about if your baby pukes on your truck seat or if you're able to pay for formula Link to comment

I think you have weighed your options carefully and come up with a plan that is best for both you and your gf. I really believe you will be most happy with this plan. Have you talked to your gf about it? What does she say? Link to comment
glegend Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Have you talked to your gf about it? What does she say? Ohh yeah I spoke to my girlfriend about this. So we went for a long drive, and I just asked her to marry me. I told her I love her to death I want to be with her, and start a family but lets take it step by step and do things the right way. She was just shocked, like she couldnt speak but yeah so she agrees with me and see it that we can start a family after college and my apprenticeship. Link to comment

glegend Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Congratulations on your engagement! Thank You Thank You. Its not really official, I havn't given her a ring yet Ive only asked her an she accepted Link to comment
annie24 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Thank You Thank You. Its not really official, I havn't given her a ring yet Ive only asked her an she accepted congrats! and IMO, an engagment is real when you ask a person to marry you and they say yes. a ring is just a piece of metal and stone. it is a material thing. the whole "engagement ring" is just something that jewlers say to stay in business.

glegend Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 Sorry for taking a while to respond my appoloies. To tell you the truth I think she will be fine for at least a few months. Im kind of worried because in 2 Saturdays my family is invited to one of my moms uncles surprise 65th birthday party, my girlfriend is coming with me, but all my little cousins that are aged from 1-5 are going to be there so Im kind of worried she may start up again.

She may, And if she does, remind her what you've already talked about. Another thing you can do is suggest she volunteer at a day care or post ads to babysit so that she can get in some time with kids and enjoy herself, but not have to take on the role of parent. You are thinking on the right path, glegend. Don't let your gf sway that logical thinking- you know what is best for you both in this situation, and she's just thinking on a whim and on her teenage hormones. Link to comment

She might but like you said just remind her what we've already talked about. Maybe it would be a good idea to get her to volunteer at a daycare centere or even babysit. As for being on the right path, well I need to be right cause I dont want to really do anything that can basically * * * * up my future. My apologies for swearing. Link to comment
