okay ladies, i need some help! I got officially engaged this past new years eve! yay! but it has always been a little thing of ours, for him to "fake" propose* every so often. and i always said once he did it for real i got a turn to propose to him!
anyways we are having a long engagement, over 2 years, and he mentioned wanting a ring to say he was engaged as well. so i figure its my turn to propose to him, he did it so many times for me! i have the ring and we are going to the lake we met at and where he spent his childhood summers this weekend...
any suggestions how I should pop the question to him? [ FEEL FREE TO SKIP THIS PART]
*our first fake proposal*
on one of our first dates, i asked him to make sure we got a nice private table at dinner, as it was the only time we got to see each other that month. so he called and told the hostess he was proposing that night and needed a good table. i thought it was hilarious. but when we got there all the waitresses were obviouly excited and had been told about it. when we got to our very lovely private booth i whispered that he was gonna have to do it! and tossed him the only ring i had on. so a few minutes later he said " will you marry me" and handed the ring back.
i said nope wasnt good enough. no one would say yes to that, it didnt sound real.
so he did it again later. got down on one knee, looked into my eyes and told me all the reasons he wanted to spend his life with me and how he would be a good husband... and oh my.... if he hadnt sealed the deal before... i was all his after that. i kept that ring on my finger until it broke off a year and a half later.
about six months after it broke, he gave me a real ring to wear.
