He was at the first protest I attended in February 2008 and we started dating in October 2009. We live a very interesting and odd life that my coworkers like to hear and laugh about. On a more me-centered note, I've lived on three continents, studied North Korean history and Japanese language for three years in college before switching to nursing, can read French fluently and know enough about religions to speak with confidence to practitioners of said religions so that I can learn more about them. My boyfriend and I are both Buddhist, but different schools of Buddhism (he's Zen and I'm Mahayana).
And regarding lack of ring: we actually have a ring. It's my grandmother's wedding ring. She gave it to us exactly five days after meeting Tyler, which I figure is a good sign. He's getting it resized, plating it in palladium or platinum and replacing one small diamond. He says he's waiting until he comes up with an outrageous proposal idea.
