Mission aborted!

Well it seems I still have some learning to gain about women. Fang Zhu decided to cancel our relationship and I am now single and solitary once again. All my brother's and sister's are married and with children and they all think I have the perfect life, no wife to complicate my life. But having helped raise 26 nieces and nephews and knowing about the good times that my relations have had being married let's me know that the good times a couple has together outweighs the bad. I am going to finish my classes and get at least a certificate or diploma before I make any future plans about relationships.

Making a committment!

Well hello world! I am actually going to China! This is the engagement ring I had especially made for my lady love, Fahng Zhu. Three heart shaped stones; her birthstone, an alexanderite on the left, a larger Star sapphire in the middle, and my birthstone, a ruby, on the right! I could not afford a diamond, nor a natural alexanderite, so I had her birthstone grown in a lab from a seed crystal. It is still real alexanderite, and not synthetic. The Jeweller offered me a synthetic one cheap, but when compared to the lab grown one it looked so cheap and chinzy that I could not bear to give such a stone to the lady I wish to marry and be with for the rest of my life. This is but the beginning of a great big step forward in my life, and I will not look back. I have been through happy times and sad, mostly sad, but Fahng has brought joy into my life and I have always wanted to find the someone special in my life that I could share intimate moments and my inner self with. It will take some doing and a lot of government paperwork and time to get her a fiancee visa to come to America, but that will give me time to find a place for us to live and start a new life together. We wish to have children soon after marriage, but that too will take some advance planning and preparation. The future remains a blank page on an open book for us to write the history of our life together!
