Pops....I can't tell you how it warms my heart to hear your story of the marriage. You are such a special person and deserve all the happiness that life can offer. So, now I have some questions because obviously I know nothing of your culture except what we've been priviledged to hear from you. And since there will be another wedding ceremony next year......
What did you wear and what colour? Since we won't see pictures would love to know. I can only imagine how beautiful you are!
Was there a wedding party with bridesmaids and all the glimmer or will that wait until summer 2006?
Did you exchange engagement and wedding rings?
So you are legally married but not living together. Does that mean that he can claim you as a dependant?
Does your culture see you as legally married or will that wait until the second ceremony?
I too say I'm sorry if you've answered these before. I've been working long hours and have trouble keeping up with all that's happening here.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

Were you allowed to be alone with him once you were married in the ceremony or do you still have the third person with you? I couldn't remember if you said that only changed once you were starting your life together, or once you actually got legally married? This is all very interesting to me, and, I thank you for being so open about the process! Congratulations, this is so cool for you.
We won't be starting life together until he's done with his education and we're both ready to take on the responsibility that comes with marriage, but legally, we are now married, and can be alone with each other. It was fun while he was here. He and I would go to the park together...sometimes the mall, and just spend time with each other. It was SO nice, and now that he left, I'm pretty sad.
Can't wait till he comes and visits again. My brother's going to Massachusetts to visit him in December. I 'want' to go with him, but he has roommates, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to go and stay with him when there are other guys there...so...I have to stay home. Wah. He'll be visiting in January though.
