I think I going to get married. Just have to pop the question. She likes pinball too or is that just the hook?  |

doubt it's a hook, but if she likes pinball, and lets you have a collection in the house, well she's a keeper, mine even bought me a pinball machine as a wedding gift,

yep. if they are into the collection and pick out their own pins even. then they are a keeper for sure. my lady took me to starbust back in our first years together. she saved up all her tips and we walked away with 11 machines. all vids but it was the start of something beautiful. she is great as well. |

even if she didn't like pinball, she is a keeper. I told her that i would thin the collection out. 25 pins down to 18. i hope i can handle it, i might have a little room to walk in the game basement. |

On a lighter note, I had to explain to my wife that the glass on the machine is tempered and yes it will support her weight and no we wont have to pull shards of glass out of her a**. That's the kinda appreciation for pinball I like my woman to have. Ha ha...just kidding.
Took 2 tries for me to get the right wife...but I did. If you get along without a lot of arguing and she doesnt irritate you alot then you have a good shot, IMHO. Oh, and also she doesn't bust your balls constantly.
Tolerance is very important.
Good luck! |

In my case , We ' ve been togheter for 23 years . We got married 17 years later , with 2 kids in the house . As for pins , she started to freak a bit at 4 . Then , she must ' ve tought , "if you can ' t beat them , join them" . We now have a pin in the diningroom !If She likes pins , it ' s a good start for it to last ...  |

Pin in the dining room here too and another 16 packed away here and there. Very tolerant spouse, obviously. But after 21 years, you have enough dirt on each other to get what you want.  |
