Getting engaged tonight - am I missing anything?

You need to re-read his post. But still, 5 Ex-fiances? That's even much worse than having 5 guys propose (at different times) and turn them down.

To the OP, sorry to rain on your parade. Be more careful what you post next time.

Could it be that the 5 other proposals came from guys with limited finances?

Wow, lol.
1. Ok, she was proposed to - and declined - 4 times prior
2. She is from another, more conservative culture - proposals come early and (relatively) more often there.
3. She is an MD - not a gold digger

Thanks for the positive feedback guys, i everyone can feel this way at some point. I have been dating as an adult for 20 years now and I did not even know this species of emotion existed. For years, I have been creating a checklist and measuring women against it; thinking to myself that this is how we find an ideal partner. Then I met HER and just knew. Instantly.

Some of you know exactly what I am talking about; Others will assume (as I once did) that I am a fool or a liar attempting to justify a bad decision. I am neither and I hope everyone gets to experience this.

Good luck everyone and thank you for the support and good wishes!
