Rumba Rue Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 My companion Boats whom I have been with for 12 years finally gave me a real ring. It's to solidify our realationship- I gave him a beautiful ring for his birthday back in March. It's a solitare 1/3 cut Marquise diamond on a white-gold band. It's gorgeous and I just keep looking at it....ah......yea baby! I finally got a really good sized diamond! Whooo-hooooo! Just for the record, I cannot get married. If I do I will loose my SSI benefits upon which I survive- because the State and Government would assume Boats could cover my costs, which he can't. But if we ever win the lottery.... :)

Blue Mermaid Posted August 14, 2006 Posted August 14, 2006 While contratulations seem to be in order, I'm certain all the Congratulationsare due to Boats. After all, he has managed to get the much desired Rumba to say "Back off men, I'm taken!" I wish you all the best. Many years of love and happiness to you both.

Rumba Rue Posted August 14, 2006 Author Posted August 14, 2006 Thank you all! It's really weird for me to look at a ring on the correct finger...it's been over 12 years since my divorce from the third. I swore I'd never marry again, but after all these years, I finally feel I've got the right one. Besides all the other ex's just gave me really puny diamonds (the kind you need a magnifying glass to see) that really didn't say much about the kind of people they were...I'll not go there. Anyways Boats and I are very compatable to each other and we accept each other the way we are. We have generated a family of pets instead of kids, and we are quite happy about it.
Ransom Posted August 14, 2006 Posted August 14, 2006 Huzzah, Rumba, and good fortune to you both. And, yes, a nice bit of bling is a good thing! ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Red Dog Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 Your gonna make a lot of men very unhappy. But as long as your happy that's all I care about. The rest of us had our chance I guess and the best man won. Live, Love, Laugh, and share with us when you can. Best of everything to you and the "Better man".
Zephaniah W Nash Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 My best -- even if belated -- wishes to the both of you, sounds like you both are on equal footing as to just who is the lucky one. And that piece of paper is just that -- the important part is the commitment you both make, not what the state says you've made.
