Do not, do NOT under any circumstances in the middle of a project, decide that it is a good idea to get married. A HUGE and MASSIVELY costly mistake from a project standpoint.
After that ring goes on, well, let's just say it isn't pretty. Suddenly she has voting rights on the "family" budget and she is not the least bit hesitant about voicing her opinion and exercising executive veto powers.
That's the mistake part.
Suddenly you absolutely HAVE to have things like area rugs, draperies, little doily things for tables, a new bed if she even SUSPECTS there might have been another female present in the old one at any point in history, wall decorations, knick knacks, etc etc.
That's the expensive part.
If you have the patience (and funds) to weather the storm you might be able to eventually bring her around to the positive points of allowing you your Man Time and Man Hobbies, if you're lucky. If not you might as well sell your stuff, buy a gun and swallow the barrel. OR, you could just have yourself castrated (if she hasn't done it herself already) and get used to saying yes dear.
Then there's kids. That hell-spawn of Satan designed to crush happy males under the mind numbingly huge weights of expense and responsibility.
Don't do it. Just say no.

Ya forgot fluted wine glasses, fine china, new pots and pans, throwing out your dude clothes, and clearing out the trunk toolbox to make room for her shopping acquisitions.
