I am happily single.

The only women I ever go near are in whorehouses and that is the way it will stay.

But you do know that I don't mind? As long as they still can do their thing and have not been spoiled by too much Bach, they are welcome to arrive at any time :)

Better than a documented uncivil union, I suppose.

Don't you even try, you already have given up the ownership of them! People do foolish things when they are young and in love... ;)

But I am a nice person so I'll let you keep them for a while...until they are even more accomplished. Have you learned the Hummel sonatas 5&6 yet? Or the Franck Prelude, Choral & Fugue?

And of course you're welcome to come with them and show me what they can do, it's not that far...just cross the Atlantic and head North  :)

I was most happily unmarried to my husband for 23 years. We realized rather soon after our engagement in 1989 that we hate big weddings. However, finally we decided that we should get those last papers, seemed to be a smart move, so we officially and legally got married in October -12. No name changes, no bl**dy rings (I hate rings too) and no guests invited. Afterwards we bought ourselves a lovely bunch of roses and had a meal at McDonald's and it was awfully romantic the whole thing.  :-*  I had also just got my new piano so I celebrated a bit at home by playing Mendelsohn's Wedding March with the church organ voice ...

Oh, byt the way: the official wedding photo is my piano with the roses. And just to make a clear statement of what a piano idiot I really am, I will celebrate our 2-year-anniversary this year by "dating" a concert pianist (no, not really, just go to a concert) instead of being at home with my husband ...  :P

Single, unfortunately. And finding someone decent is going to be a nightmare.

@outin That's a book of Liszt's piano transcription of the Symphony! So she doesn't have to read from an orchestral score. Not until 18 months.

Personality, goals, not going out.... Those things can go a long way toward keep time available for practicing.

How silly of me...Yes, it's best not to hurry them too much, but to let them mature at their own pace :)
