2012-10-15来源:互联网
Glynis added: 'We had been together for about three years at the time.All of a sudden I was pushed into the middle of the dance floor and George got down on one knee and proposed to me. I was so embarrassed, but it was lovely.'
格利尼斯补充说:“那时我们差不多已经在一起三年了。突然我被人推到舞池中央和乔治单膝跪地向我求婚。我是如此的尴尬,但这件事很有爱。”

“George has tried to set a wedding date a number of times since the proposal, but has never managed to see it through.”
“求婚后乔治曾多次试图确定一个婚礼日期,但从来没有看到它实现。”

He said: 'I remember about 15 years ago Glynis’s brother was about to get married and I thought that might be a good time to ask again, so I suggested a double marriage. 'And you know what she said? "You’re not spoiling my brother’s wedding!".'
他说:“我记得大约15年前格利尼斯的弟弟要结婚了,我想这可能是一个好时机再问一下,所以我提出了双份婚礼的计划。 你知道她说什么? ‘你这是在破坏我弟弟的婚礼!’”

'But to be honest we’re quite happy the way we are. The longer it went on it’s just become normal to be engaged, it doesn’t really matter that we’ve never married.
“但说实话,我们很高兴我们现在的状态。时间越长订婚也显得越正常,我们从来没结婚一点关系都没有。”

'We think it’s quite nice just to live together as a couple and we’ve never really got round to settling a date for marriage.One thing or another would turn up and it would just take a back seat.
“我们认为仅仅像夫妻一样住在一起这相当不错,我们从来没有真正确定结婚的日期。一件接一件的事出现,结婚也只能退居二线。”

'We see our situation as a normal one, it doesn’t bother me. We’ve settled down, got two kids together and life’s good.'
“我们把我们的情况视为正常,这并没有困扰我。我们已经定下来了,有两个孩子,生活很好。”

But neither George nor Glynis would rule out the possibility that they could walk down the aisle sometime in the future.
但乔治和格利尼斯并没有排除未来某个时候一起走红毯的可能性。

George said: 'You never know. Perhaps when we are retired we will find the time to do it, but we just take each day as it comes.
乔治说:“你永远不会知道。或许当我们退休后我们会找个时间来结婚,但我们只是把每一天当做即将到来的那天。”

Glynis said: 'I did dream about getting married when I was a little girl, but things happen in life, something would always get in the way.'But I would never say never.'
格利尼斯说:“当我还是一个小女孩的时候,我确实梦想过结婚的事,但在生活中总有事情发生,一些事情总是会阻碍结婚。但我永远不会说永不结婚。”
