princess320842's Purple wedding

Victor and I met in September of 07 and really hit it off. We had so much in common and really loved spending time with each other. The only problem was he said he would not be willing to think about marriage for at least two years. I said ok (even though I thought it was a long time) and we started dating and fell in love. After just nine months we had already gone ring shopping and started marriage planning. The two year thing kind of went by the wayside.

Anyway, Victor’s mom convinced him to get a new Asian style suit (which I love) and when it finally came in I said, “Lets go out to a nice dinner”. So I went and got a new dress and got all fixed up. Victor had never actually come to my house to pick me up for a proper date so he said he would come and “call on me” When he got there he handed me my favorite flowers (tulips) and we took some pictures. I put the flowers in some water and started to grab my stuff and then Victor said, “Wait, lets talk.” He said he loves me which I replied “I love you too” and that he was so glad we found each other and was thankful that we get along so well. By this time I was just like I know all this, lets go to dinner. Then he said, “I have something else for you” And me like the idiot I am said, “You already brought me flowers what else could you have?” Which is when he reached in his pocket, pulled out the ring, dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.

I am sure he said some lovely things but as I was crying so hysterically I will just have to imagine. Of course I said yes and the sweetest thing was that he had originally planned to propose at the restaurant but he knew that I would cry and my mascara would run and so he did it at the house so that I could go and fix my makeup. After we went to dinner we went to a friend’s house and everyone congratulated us. When I called my parents, before I could say anything they congratulated us as well. It turns out that Victor went and asked permission about two months earlier.
