Long story short: Will you marry me ?

[BrilloPad]

Say you would like to get to know her better before deciding.

You can then be up to your plums in muff for 3 months while you look for a new gig.

PS why am I sending a serious response? This is so clearly a wind up....

[FatLazyContractor]

She sounds insane.

I am seriously going to need more details. Mainly - how did she propose??

women ...

Tell her you accept after mentioning it on here and getting our advice. She'll either run a mile or is sound as a pound and you'll have fun with her.

Proposals of marriage in the workplace? You must be on a good rate. The best I get is a round of drinks by contract end.

Much though I'd love to go in to the gory details and seek some real advice from you motley lot, on reflection I'll give you the short version.

Through a series of unfortunate events, someone at ClientCo has asked me to marry them. If I decline, it will be impossible to continue to work together, and she has the influence to have my contract terminated. But I don't want to accept. I've shot myself in the foot here by leading her on a bit. But I haven't even pecked her on the cheek, nevermind shagged her. So it's worrying she would ask without really knowing me very well. The moment to laugh it off "ha ha good one, yeah, right" has passed, or more accurately, I watched the moment slowly sail past me and failed to jump aboard.

I'm going to have to find a new role, and sharpish, which is going to be very very inconvenient. Or I'll have to concoct a whole "it's not you it's me" load of tulip. But I don't think I can emerge from this unscathed. Which should teach me a lesson.

OK, flamethrowers at the ready... and go

I am tempted to go out and buy you a little gold "No tulip Sherlock" award out of my own money just for that sentence.


Given that people generally don't ask if they expect a refusal, we're gonna need some jucier more info.

You [unsurprisingly, since you're a moron] misunderstand.

What I want to know is, how does someone go about proposing to someone they've not even so much as kissed.

@ Platypus - Get down to the pub and have a good laugh with your mates lad!

Shag her if she is any good or tell her to find a wall.

In the meantime / in the breaks between shags look for a contract and bugger-off once it is all sorted!

Amish?

Yes, and soon to be a mishus.
