    Question Was your husband the first man to propose to you?

    I realize that some of us have been married before here at the Village, so I'm sure I know your answers!

    I had 5 other guys that wanted to marry me and 2 that actually did the proposing before DH came along. One of them actually had the nerve to tell me he wanted to marry me after DH and I got engaged and that he would be waiting for me when my marriage fell apart. Well, it's been 20 years since the idiot made that remark and DH and I are still going strong!!!

    Only DH, but then again I was 16 when he proposed and I didn't know many guys in high school that were ready to get married.

    So once is enough for me.

    I'd never been engaged, but I've had 3 other guys tell me that they "knew" I was the one that was meant for them....

    Guess they were wrong.....

    Does the drunk guy at Wal-Mart I ran into after a Clay Walker concert when I was in college count? (a year before I met Joe of course). I didn't even know the guy and my roommate was laughing like crazy. First he said:  "If I got down on my knees and asked you to marry me would you say yes?"  (and he did get down on his knees All I could say was "My father would kill me." He said: "Well it's not a no!!!!" :surprise:

    Yup, DH is the only one. He's also the only guy I ever dated. We've been together 21 years (dating and married) .

    I was asked by two other guys. One of them I look back and think what an idiot I was! The other one wasn't bad but his family was crazy! I am so happy that I didn't go through with them!
