But am very happy about the graceful, elegant ring that now adorns one of them.
It's pretty strange to think that I started coming here (or rather to wotmania) when I was just twelve years old, and now I'm engaged! In the time between, I have met at least a couple dozen Rafonauts, traveled to Europe because of them, dated one for three and a half years, grown and matured into a just-about adult.
I now live 2100 miles away from my sprouting ground, have two amazing dogs, and yesterday my fiance and I received the keys to our very first house.
It's strange to think how these separate lives and friendships influence each other. Sometimes I'll go on hiatus here for months at a time, and return unsure about how I fit in - but all the while, the things that I'm trying and doing are possible largely because of my RAFO-related experiences. Legolas in particular taught me how to be a better, more understanding and mature person. And if I think way back to 13-year-old Clover, who relied on wotmania for a sense of family, I know she'd want there to be an announcement here.
So, here's to you, RAFOwotmania! I wouldn't be where I am without you.

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all...

So, the gay thing's done? Or is this one of those pretend-wedding engagements they do?
