Not Engaged Yet

ENGAGED!!

I don't have very many female friends to get excited with IRL about this kinda stuff, so I turn to you wonderful women; he proposed on Friday!! It sounds so weird saying he's my fiance, but we are officially engaged! And its weird, but I realized something: absolutely nothing has changed. We wait for this day when he gets down on one knee and we can start planning the rest of our lives together, and when it happens nothing changes except for having a little bling. After the overwhelming moment and the crying and the shaking, our relationship went right back to where it was a few hours before. We still love each other just as much as we did a few days ago. Just thought I'd mention that for some of the ladies on here who focus so much thought on when he'll propose instead of enjoying right now with your SO :)

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Re: ENGAGED!!

  • Yeah. That's what we tell women all the time.

    Congrats on your engagement.


  • What, no bling pictures?

    Shame, woman.

    I'll tell you congrats when I get some ring porn.   :)
  • Thanks ladies!

    @Cooper - My mom and brother immediately asked me if we'd set a date yet. I'd been engaged for maybe about 20 minutes at the time lol

    @Elle -  I am soooo sorry!! I'll get on that right away!! I'm at work, so as soon as my boss takes a potty break I'll snap a quick pic Smile

    </div><div>He planned our entire friday afternoon by taking me to the places we frequented when we were just friends and when we first started dating. He took me to lunch at the restaurant where we had our first lunch date as a couple, then to the bar we hung out at all the time, and were hanging out at the night we drank wayyyy too much coffee patron and kissed for the first time lol! So we had a shot each for old times sake<img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif" border="0" alt="Cool" title="Cool" /></div><div>
    </div><div>Then he took me to my favorite beach spot: a little semi-secluded area where we like to take the kids. We went for a walk down the beach, talking about everything and nothing at all as usual, and suddenly he just pulls out the ring box, drops to one knee and asks me to marry him! It was the absolute sweetest thing and I can't get that look on his face out of my mind! </div>

    <div>Thanks Drew <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /> I totally can't stop staring at it. He did an amazing job. I was afraid he didn't see any of the hints I left around for him in the last few months, but I guess he did after all because it's perfect right down to the princess cut an the halo which are my absolute faves!</div>
