Finally after about 3 weeks of waiting from jamesallen the ring was delivered today, Saturday morning. 1.30c, J VS2 GIA ex cut, 3 row Platinum pave. Just a ridiculous looking ring to me. She heard me ripping open the box. She was super happy and it turns out the diamond size is right on, her ring size is 4.5.
Just a couple pics attached since she is a nurse and sleeps during the day.
We met in college when I was 21 and she was 20 and were just pure friends, way back in 2000. A close friend tried to set me up with her roomate and that was a bad match. But I saw this really pretty girl sitting on her computer and asked for her screename haha. We lost touch for a while and recently hung out after I said hi to her on facebook. Somehow it was like nothing changed, and she has made me smile through some very rough recent stuff. I had to shut down my engineering company of 2 years over some partner issues just as all the hard work was just about to pay off with rather large jobs. She has been the only person who made me calm about that.
So I was trying to figure out when to ask her, and after dropping my sister off at her hotel, Xmas night, I decided I would ask in the pouring rain back home. As we got back home I had no idea what I was going to give her, as there was no ring. So I took a solid gold bracelet I had and bent it into this funny looking ring. And then asked if she wanted to smoke outside together, she smokes I don't. She knew something was odd about that. So as she reached for her lighter, I got down on my knee and asked. She couldn't stop crying after saying yes. Only a handful of people know, as she wanted to wait until she had a ring on her finger. So of course my excitement is huge as now she feels like everything is real and we can finally say it out loud.
I will get some more pics in a better form of light and post some more very shortly. I am a truly hopeless romantic and you can probably tell by a website I made for her, http://love.brandonandjesselyn.com
