Mazal Tov!!!!!  :D

Judging by what an amazing part of GUE you are how and seeing how dedicated you are to each individual member on the forums, I can only say mazal tov and hope that you build a marriage and house full of torah and mitzvos.

Thank you, everyone...Amen!

By the way, there was Woodford by the vort.  ;D

One point, which applies to everyone. The clear message here is that we may not always see an immediate response to our efforts. But hashem is watching, knows, and appreciates everything we're doing.

;D MAZELTOV!!!!!!


THATS THE BEST NEWS EVER... its obvious the the simplest person (me!) how HAKLADOSH BARUCH HU is truely so close to his beloved SB, the chsance at life youve been rewarded with and the chance to fulfill some of the greaest mitzvahs have come whilst youve strived and fought to become a pre, holy jew, BEZRAT HASHEM we (us unmarried opnes) will oneday fllow in your footstep!!!!


MAZELTOV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAZAL TOV MAZAL TOV!! im so so happy for you sb! (and a little jealous coz) you get to start off marriage on the right foot, with a real awareness of what 'this drive' is really all about and, the way you clearly care about everyone here on the forum, your kallah is one very lucky girl!

may you be zoche to build a b'n'b filled with the light of the shechina, ahavo and torah!!

p.s how come your status has been 'married'?

Mazal Tov to you and your kallah!  :D  Rewards are there for the ones that help others!

Mazel Tov, SB. It is beautiful to see life actually 'happenning' for people who have difficulties, especially with this stuff. A brocha I'd like is to be satisfied with living this day. Plan like heck for the 'tomorrows' in order to do what you can to make things go as smoothly as possible, but live only today.

Hatzlocha to you and your lucky kallah! ...dare you to use the GYE banner as the centerpieces at the wedding!!

Um, what?

SB: Did your kallah have to read all 2665 of your posts before she knew enough to say 'yes?' Are you going to encourage her to? I keep saying to an engaged friend in a related context that "a good marriage can survive anything except a secret." Forgive my being really personal (not just online support group personal), but I'm wondering what info, and when, and why you chose to share.

Ignore the question if it's not shayach. (But as I said, I have an engaged friend right now, struggling over whether to disclose some similar 'stuff.' You can probably guess....)

I think that every person needs to know themselves, and their kallah. I spoke to my rebbe, and decided that considering the what I've been involved in, unburdening my secret would mean burdening her with it.

So, she has a very general idea of the fact that I've had some issues in the past, and that I've known girls in my past, somewhere. She hasn't pushed for details, and I haven't offered. If she did? I think I'd tell her, staying very vague.

Dov - sorry, not gonna take you up on that one. :-[

Nevermore - in other words (I think), we need to think about tomorrow because there's planing that needs to be done...but we need to live in today, insofar as the tests of today, and not worrying now about the tests of tomorrow.

MAZAL TOV!!!!!!!

May you both be zoche to build a bayis neeman b'yisroel!
May Hashem shower you with His brachos and may you both always be zoche to see His chesed clearly every step of the way.

Not enough words to express my happiness,

mom 7up

MAZAL TOV !!

That is such great news to hear !

I would have loved to come to the wedding, but for some reason many people get intimidated by my rifle and fatigues.

Yeah, Commando, and all the other garb that goes along with going Commando.

Mazal Tov SB!

You have been one of the most inspirational members here from the get go.

A couple  of points.

You have a disadvantage over other people getting married in that the  experience you have to draw on is of unhealthy relationships. You don't want your marriage to be anything at all like your past relationships.

Recovery as Dov often points out, is a very selfish  exercize. Marriage has to be a very unselfish endeavor.
An addict in recovery says nothing about your ability to have a home with shalom bayis (also SB). Can I suggest at the risk of sounding terrribly redundant that you buy the Garden of Peace and study it.

Finally, I'm thrilled for you! Wishing you much, much happiness. And although we haven't heard from the other side in a while, I'm sure they are equally thrilled for you (7up?)

MAZELTOV!!!
