"So when are you getting married???"

Recently, I've been hit with this IRKSOME Q three times over two consecutive days. I'm not even engaged yet!!

Wondering if any of you have suggestions on how to answer?

Many Thanks. :)

Hey, I'm not suggesting anything. I was answering your question regarding Vermont and Hawaii.

"When they change the stupid laws around here so I can marry my sister."

ROTFLMAO!

"When they change the stupid laws around here so I can marry my sister."

Could always move to West Virgina.

I know. I still reject the idea based on the fact that not only is is sinful but goes against the laws of nature. These folks need to tatoo "This tree bears poison fruit" on their foreheads.

Ask them if they're up for the job.

I've got unmarried friends who are co-habitating. I ask them this question every time I see them and will continue to ask this question. I know it irritates them. I know it's none of my business, but

One thing I will say next time I have the opportunity to express what I'm thankful for, it will be that I do not know you.

Q: "So when are you getting married???"

A: "I don't know, grandma, when are you going to break your hip???"

How about: A soon as I get the results of my smallpox test back.

Good thread & great question.

[bootless]

I heard that a lot. My answer (also good for "So, when are you going to have a baby?"): a cheery, "Not today!"

Years ago, my wise father said to me..."so, why aren't you getting married...he won't marry you?"

Going on 22 years. Glad I did.

I was under the impression that free republic was a conservative board. Does that include letting homosexuals post vanity posts about their lifestyle and, to ask advice regarding said lifestyle when, that lifestyle is opposed to the conservative view?

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Or anwser, "as soon as that pig SOB has the restraining order lifted."

[Old Professer]

As soon as I quit "beating my wife?"

This is just the beginning. There is always a question. After 16 1/2 years of marriage, I'm still getting asked on almost a daily basis, "When are you going to have children?"

If you figure it out, PLEASE let me know how you did it.

First, you both take off all your clothes.....

Then...

[Old Professer]

Just say "you are too young to die." I still use it...

My brother-in-law was famous for this line when he got peeved at someone: "365 days from today, you will have been dead exactly one year."

I don't know. Let's all ask Darth & Lisa. LOL
