Bernie chose a unique way to propose to his girlfriend...



Bernie:  Hi Tammy, check out what I found!
Tammy:  Wow, whats this?



Tammy:  Hey its Bejeweled, my favorite game!  On DS!  Where could this have come from?



Tammy: Hey wait, the screen cleared!  Whats going on?!



Tammy:  It's a ring!
Bernie:  Will you marry me?



Tammy:  Of course!



So many those weren't her exact words, and these aren't pictures of exactly how it happened (it's a recreation of the event after dinner), but that's the general idea.  I spent the past few weeks working on a version of Bejeweled (her favorite game) on Nintendo DS as a homebrew project.  Once it hits a certain score, the screen clears and a ring drops down!  Of course afterwards, we did the nice dinner and everything too =)

edit: Just for the record - I wrote the game from scratch!

thats pretty corney,

my proposal to hafu post C cups is going to be similar, but i'll be using a vending machine, quarter, and plastic ring...

it weeds out the gold-diggers marrying me for my money.  Everyone should try it, its WAY more practical ;\

The Bejewel game took just time and effort... def weeds out Gold diggers too and a good gauge of their gaming skillz

Or you he could just ask her ... like she is gonna say no if he just asks and gives her a ring instead of spending weeks on this stupid video game project?  If he were my friend I would advise him against this idea.

I'd venture a guess that you probably aren't very romantically inclined.

Girls appreciate the small things, not big gestures.

I like to call her in the middle of the night to ask if she's sleeping. If she is, I say "You better be." I repeat this 4 or 5 times until morning. This will show her I care about her deeply. I warm her up when shes cold...and not by giving her my jacket... then i might get cold. Rather, look her in the eye and say "If you don't stop *****ing about the cold right now you're going to be *****ing about a black eye." The best way to get warm is with fear.

not to mention that all shows dedication to the man, and true love...

if she has a problem with that stuff shes a gold digger.

Just hold em down and get to work wherever they fall imo ... if you take em home first it makes a mess and then she knows where to send the police later.
