Hi everybody! My fiancé and I got engaged on may 2. We were on vacation to Vietnam; visiting my grandma. He told me he had a present for me and asked me to come up to the room we were staying in. And then he dug around in his backpack, opening this little "secret compartment" that I hadn't noticed while packing. And he handed me the ring box to open and asked me to marry him. It was very sweet and his timing worked out well because all of my family members were coming over for dinner that night.
We got back to the USA on the 17th. And I feel like it's been a constant barrage since we got engaged. My mom has already had a fit over my Vietnamese dress. I wasn't over my jetlag yet and people were criticizing me for not having a date or venue yet! I know it's pretty a common experience but it still seems pretty crappy that people act like that.
