The Future of Marriage: "I do" Mr Highlander !

Since I spend most of my time in some way or another online, whether for work or pleasure, it looks more and more like this will be how I will get married one day :P




Translation:

" do you accept him as a spouse?

yes - no- cancel "

Salam Highlander,
Oh my goodness that's really funny.

I have some dear friends here in the U.S. that are from Sudan and they've shared with me how some of their friends and family members have actually had marriage ceremonies over the phone.

It's cute.... some have gone a step further, seeking annulment by text messaging on the cell phones... how sad!

Highlander said...

Anglo Libyan Thanks

Braveheart let me know when you find a way ...

Ibeebarbie Salams yes I heard about the phone marriage - Sudan is leading on that :)

A_Akak - Al naseeb still looking for it ...

Libyan - thanks yes I agree.

PH :P not that much he he he

Red - yes annulment by mobile I think it started in Malaysia actually. So LOL Sudan get married over the phone and Malaysia divorce by sms. We are so into the 21st century :P

The way the U.S. dollar keeps falling, such a wedding no longer sounds as crazy as it would have just a wee while back. Anyway, no one in the world could afford gems worthy of you, let alone your dowry.

Fast it sinketh, as a thing the U.S. dollar.
Betwixt the stars and the unaccomplished fate,
the heavy heart of a man sinketh
Highlander,
but not his high regard for thee.

Highlander said...

Enlightened :) welcome to my blog - actually you are right lots of people are meeting, dating etc.. online

Nomad:) it is indeed platonic ..

Benghazi Citizen :) - correct I've met such people as you describe as well.

Roberto Iza not sure you can actually afford Highlander's dowry..

The above words illustrate what progeny you can expect from such a marriage ;).
They are Bulgarian for "Dad", "Mom" and "Grandma", typed single-handedly by my elder son (4).
I have difficulties accessing the computer when he is at home.
