My sweet and I have been together for three years and have been living together (with her daughter and my two kids) for the last year an a half. We've know each other for five or six years but bonded over two very horrific divorces.

I can't think of anyone I would rather grow old with than my sweet but have been scared (given my last attempted at marriage) but...today I bought an engagement ring and plan on proposing St. Valentine's Day. Regardless the outcome I am going to need a little cigar therapy over the next several months. (Of course I imagine she will let me have whatever I want after the 14th).

Crap, I hope she doesn't read these forums behind my back...

    Best of luck! Let us know what she says.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    My condolences.
    I am heart-fully sorry for your loss.

    Oh wait, I think that's wrong. Is it condolences or congratulations? LOL!
    Congratulations.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    ...and another one...and another one...and another one bites the dust...

    What kind of cigars does the future Ms Echambers like..?

    Of course we will need her addy..!

    The second time around worked for me...heck, I get waited on hand and foot. And I really like cooking and cleaning and ironing.

    Glad for you.
