Kinda :D When we say engaged.. We're engaged to celebrate our relationship in a formal way, making a public declaration of our happiness and our plans to spend the rest of our lives together, celebrating it in a non-religious way.. Our way :mrgreen: We're going to say some vows, exchange rings and then have a massive party with all our family and friends. No dress code, no wedding presents (maybe charity donations if people want to give something) and most importantly to us both.... No paying somebody for a written contract saying we're married, "HANG THE HELL ON!" I hear you say, "you're not getting married then are you? How can you even say you're engaged?!"... Well let me try to explain: proving to other people how we feel has always been something we've never felt the need to do, Becca's family are very traditional and have always seen us as not a serious relationship, despite us living together and having been together for longer than most people we know who are married, including our parents. Not to say we wont do the legal bit at some point in the future if we think it would benefit us financially or legally (if one of us got ill for example) but when it comes down to it we've known we want to spend the rest of our lives together for a long time, no piece of paper could make those feelings stronger so we're in no rush to pay for a piece of paper at the moment :) We're buzzing, hearts racing at a million miles an hour and we can't stop grinning. Happy times!

This made me bid on an engagement ring, if I win the auction, then I'll pop the question on our dating anniversary in April. If not...
