Last night (November 21 2008) Justin proposed to me.
We were driving home from my girlfriend Ria's birthday party when he turns to me and says "Marry me?".
I almost didn't hear him...I guess I just didn't comprehend. I said (thinking he was just asking out of curiosity) "yes I want to marry you".
Then he pulled the truck over, came around to my side, got down on one knee and asked me again. Needless to say, I started to cry and said Yes. He took off my ring (the one he made for me before I moved as a promise) and looked at it saying "I hereby pronounce you engagement ring" and put it back on my finger.
I'd told him before that I didn't want him to ever buy me an engagement ring cause I think they're silly. Spending money for something that's gonna come off when you get married anyways and replaced by another one. Last night he said to me that this ring meant so much more than any he could ever buy anyways. That he'd put love and time and his heart into it. That he knew I didn't want diamonds, and this one was better. It stood for our love. I told him it was perfect because of that, and what I'd said before about not wanting him to buy me one, and also this ring is so me. Diamonds and gold belong to other girls...materialistic ones. Glass is better than diamonds, especially when it was made by my sweet Love. I couldn't ask for anything more, and I wouldn't want it any other way. This is our Ring. It's a promise kept.
He told me he's never loved a girl the way he loves me, and that he feels like I'm the girl he's meant to love. Who he's supposed to be with for the rest of his life. He said he's never felt like that before. He said alot of things that I'll keep for me.
It was the most wonderful night of my life. One I'll never forget. It was everything I'd always dreamed of. It was Perfect.
We set the date. It'll be on June 11 2009. One and a Half years that we've been together (officially). It's going to be beautiful.
I love him so much.
That was my incredible night. I thought I'd share it you!
What happened later is ours alone...
