Hahaha. A what? Whats a dowry? I'm sorta slow. :rofl:

Basically the reverse of a bride-price. Money, land, livestock, jewelry, troops... with bride-price, the bride's family is compensated for the loss of a productive family member. A dowry is, in essence, the family paying someone to take a daughter off their hands. Of course it's a bit more complicated than that, especially in milieus like the old European nobility where dowries played a huge role in the consolidation of wealth among a relatively small group of families.

Don't be shy. You'd be surprised what people say to Mz. Icy.

No I wouldn't. I'm just afraid she'll hurt me ;) or maybe I'm afraid that she won't ;)

You were pretty quiet last night. Send me a PM letting me know what I missed meeting wise last night. I was told my name was frequently mentioned.

sadly to say im officially single and it sucks to the fullest! :shock:

Basically a gift (usually money or in some cultures livestock, etc.) used to sweeten the deal of marrying the person it is attached to.

I know it wouldn't work for me. Makes me a big target for leaches. :X

I actually had to pay a dowry for my ex wife to my mother in law. I paid less because she was married once before so they saw her as used goods. I could demand the money back due to the fact that she cheated on me and treated me poorly but the mother in law still adores me and shes a sweet little asian woman. Her daughter has broken her heart enough so I wont do it.

yep it sucks. although sometimes it's good to get out of whatever crap relationship was holding you down. I'm kinda tired of being single now though... been too long, imho.

Posted

yep. definitely stinks on ice.

damn you roommates. quotes Jack from Fight Club "and I have to come home to this". grr!... drunk. still hungry. still horny. gawd! and I should not be posting this on DGN at 2:40AM.

hey im horny myself your not the only one

Posted

They would get along nicely ;)

I think... :yes

Posted

hey im horny myself your not the only one

well that's a relief... in a sense... If I were the only one I'd worry. Maybe we should talk ;)

Posted

Yup. The only bad part about being single is the part where a relationship has to end to get there. :-(

Posted

I have been single now for almost a year and its starting to get to me. Its lonely not having a special someone.

Posted

Don't mind the single life just don't like the circumstances that led to it.

Posted

Yeah...but there is a chance that may change. My ex got out of jail a while ago and has gotten her life back on track...she ditched me for drugs but now she ditched the drugs so things are looking up. Even if it doesn't work out with us at least she is on the right track now...

Posted

Nothing wrong with being single,being judged poorly because your single by couples is BS

I like the single life who gives a f^%$ what anyone says

Posted

I be single. Only been about 5 weeks and I'm already tired of it.
