Weddings

As we all must know (except for a few newbies), getting married on Whyville is a pretty popular thing! Of course, it's different on Whyville -- no minister, church, wedding party... it's all quite simple! All you have to do is ask a girl to marry you, and hope she says yes!

Now, remember, gentlemen, YOU have to do the asking! There are certain persons who might not want to get married and will turn you down, but don't be insulted! That's just part of life! If you really like this female, though, there are certain steps that you can do to make the chances of disappointment slimmer and slimmer.

For instance, before you make a move, get to know her! Chat with a bunch of girls, and if you find one that you think you might share some interests with, hook up some meetings (ex. 3:00 at Whyville Square). If you then get to Whyville Square at three o' clock, and it's full of people, look on the map to find where there are very few people, and invite her there so you can have a bit more of a private chat.

Also, be nice to her -- no mean greetings! Thirdly, if you really think you like her, ask her if you can Whyville date! Then you don't have to be majorly committed, but you have the beginning of a relationship. After a bit of dating, if you're up to it, you can ask her to marry you.

Here come wedding plans:

  1. When she says yes, immediately decide if you want to be "married" or if you want to have an "engagement" (kind of like a trial marriage).
  2. Split the money when you're married. It's not fair to have 10,000 clams yourself and leave her with a salary of 1 clam per day.
  3. Buy a house. Successful marriages don't take place in a dark alley.
  4. If you're fighting a lot, get a divorce. Don't make life miserable.

Now, last but most certainly not least, I would like to congratulate my friend, lilcass17, on her engagement to muneer. Have a kewl marriage, guys!

Editor's Note: Nice article, royalblue, but I have to ask you: why is it that the guys are expected to do all this? Shouldn't women have the right and the responsibility, too? That sure sounds like gender discrimination to me -- but perhaps you never looked at it this way. (When I was your age, I certainly hadn't yet!)

Don't you agree that girls can do anything guys can? If that's true, how does it affect dating and marriage?
