Goofy and Romantic

[ilovesparkles]

OK as promised, I am here to share a cute little thing that happened the last night of my trip (yes I am home now

) instead of always coming with problems to be solved. We thought it would be romantic to take a bath together and just relax the last night I was in Seattle with him. So I run the tub and get in and he comes in. I scoot up to the frint and he, uh attempts to get in with me. Well it was quite obvious after we both sit, er try to sit, down that this tub is barely meant for one person let alone two. I personally haven''t taken a bath in ages and didn''t think of this. He couldn''t even stretch his legs out/around past my hips until I leaned sideways a bit. It was ridiculous! So we sat in the tub for like 5 minutes, squished like two little sardines until we looked (more like craned my neck around and upside down almost) at each other, laughed hysterically, and decided to get out. No more romantic baths together unless its a big double sauna type bath tub! It was truly ridiculous, but hey its the thought that counts right?!

Oh, ok I have to add one more, as I was packing I mentioned I wanted to steal his favorite bed shirt to take home with me. He said to go ahead

what a sweety! So I gave him my fave bed shirt. Then HE suggests we swap pillowcases too so he can feel like he is cuddling with me after I leave! He can be so silly and sentimental sometimes...

I guess I am a little confused as to why you continue to post on a "Ladies in Waiting" forum. It doesn''t appear that you are "waiting" for anything-simply in a new relationship.. I am not trying to be mean-just don''t get it.

Sista, let''s leave the policing of the forums to the administrators.

HAHA LOL Ster there you go cracking me up again!!

Althought the taking a bath together notion sounds all romantic, it usually ends up being a watery mess, unless ofcourse the tub is gigantic!! lol.. Ive attempted this myself and ended up swapping up soap suds for a half hour LOL.. but it sounds like you guys had a good chuckle together... very cute

i think she is posting because all her other post were for help/advice which made us all think the relationship was bad.
She wanted us to see it wasnt.
Plus, when you''re in a relationship you always have your hopes of getting engaged.. that being said, even if the relationship is just 5 months old doesn''t stop anything from being a posibility..

glad to hear from you sparkles

haha i''ve done the same with the bath(bf is 6''3..LOL) we''ve tried various ways.. some KINDA work.. lol
but in reality he doesnt even fit that well alone

A shower for two is MUCH easier! Of course, it tends to lead to needing another shower after.

Which is why we opted for the bath. Before we got in he said "no hankypanky" after we got out I said that would have been impossible lol.

I kind of resent that. People meet and get married in less than 5 months. My BF and I are planning on getting married, its just in the far off future. Right now we are focusing on him moving here in Jan. We also know that an engagement is in the future of around the two year mark. I don''t see how that is any different from any other LIW, other than the fact we aren''t ring shopping anytime soon.

Also more recently, we had a wonderful LIW that was already married but never received an ering. She became an LIW when her husband said he regretted not getting her one and was planning on re-proposing. Quite a cute story, and there was never any question as to why she was on the forum.

My BF and I have bumps along the way just like anyone else. And as discussed in the last thread I was looking for advice, I happen to come here for the support and help of the wonderful women on here. However it was realized that has made a bad picture of him because I never post about the good things only the bad.

Enough said, I don''t appreciate your comment.

Sista that was kinda un-called for. IMO waiting 2years or 2 months is still waiting therefore Sparkles in my eyes is considered a LIW. But then again i''m not the administrator of this forum and honestly i dont think you are either.

Sparkles, glad you had that cute moment with you BF. Bath time is always so much fun, even if its a tiny tub. LOL

LIW means Ladies in Waiting. If you''re waiting to get engaged, then you belong here. Doesn''t matter if you''re waiting 3 years or 3 days, everyone is welcome (I think...I''m a newbie

)

 

[ilovesparkles]

Thank you for the kind words Sleeping beauty and angela1977, they are much appreciated!

 

[Mandarine]

how cute that you guys changed pillow cases!

Your story about the bath made me think of me and my friends...these are the type of stories that just make us crack up!

Sparkles, you''re still very welcome in this forum. I think you know that things won''t happen any time soon, so you''re being realistic....but you''re still a LIW!

Not impossible.

Swapping pillow cases reminds me of an old boyfriend when in high school...he wore Aramis (ewwww), but at the time of course it reminded me of him which wasn't so ewww. He gave me a little sample sized bottle to spray on my pillow......young love...ahhhhhh

Swapping pillow cases is so sweet! Here''s another idea ilovesparkles: when my fiance and I were cross country, we bought each other cute stuffed animals..I bought him a Ty baby that was a lamb with super soft fur. Anytime one of us would need a hug, we''d go hug the stuffed animal...so cheesy I know!

LOL I keep hinting that I want to do that but he hasn''t picked up on it yet. It just seems stupid to buy myself a stuffed animal to remind me of him. I told him he should get me a dolphin and a mini bottle of his cologne. He continually likes to say his face looks like the ass end of a dolphin, which of course it doesn''t!

last year, when we both started school again, we knew it would mean we wouldn''t see each other as often as we had previously (we spent every waking moment together prior)

SO the day before school started for both of us, I planned a big ol'' meal with him (he didn''t know of course) and i had EVERYTHING he loved (although none of them really went together

).. anyways and I bought him a big fuzzy elephant that was SUPER squeazable!

it was so when I didn''t spend the nights with him, he''d have "someone" there with him

anyways, after a week..our "never together" during the week fell apart.. so now I sleep with the elephant hahah! (our excuse is he lives closer to my school-which is true- and it saves me time! hehehe..)
but regardless, we still both have those teddies (just get him one.. he''ll get the hint once u explain it!)

I might just have to do that sparklystars. Thanks for the optimism zhuzhu! Gorgeous ring by the way!
