So, this looks longer than I wanted it to be 
but I had to somehow get the experience down on ink. Part I is how we met. Part II is the proposal. Here is a link to the pictures of the ring https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/newly-engaged-1-05ct-cushion-from-id-jewelry.154393/ Enjoy it ladies 
OK, so our story goes a little something like this…
A few years ago, back when the Matrix was all the rave, a good friend of mine shared an animated picture he made on the computer with me. It was a spoof on the Matrix movies, it was funny, and not only was my good friend in it, but his friend was in it too. The “other friend” caught my attention, and I asked my good friend, who’s that guy? He’s cute! He said, oh that’s just my friend, he’s not your type though. I replied, Oh ok. And that was that.
Little did I know, around the same time, my good friend was showing some pictures on his computer to the “other friend”. They came across my picture, and “other friend” said, who’s that girl? She’s cute! My good friend said, Oh, just a girl I know. She’s not your type. And that was that.
Well, fast forward a few years, and my good friend had moved to Florida, then moved back to NY. A good year or so had gone by that I hadn’t seen him. So I called him one night, April Fools to be exact, and asked him if he wanted to hang out, maybe go to a bar. He said, let me call you back. He calls back and says, hey, is it ok if I bring a friend? I said, sure! Why not, sounds good! He replied, ok, see you soon.
About an hour passed, they came to pick me up, I went outside, I’m approaching the car, and the two of them get out of the car. My eyes land immediately on his friend. WOW. What a cute guy. We exchanged hello’s, and off to the bar we went. Well, at the bar came to find out that the “other friend” and I had many, many things in common. So we ended up exchanging numbers, and well, the rest is history. 5 years, 8 months later, and counting…..
We live together, have been since June of this year. It’s been AMAZING. We’ve been looking at rings for awhile, even before we moved in. Never found the right ring, until I stumbled on PS. Found our vendor, ID Jewelry, took a visit, picked out the stone, he picked out the setting and the rest, so I knew it was coming, just a matter of time.
The proposal:
It’s the day after Christmas, there’s a snow blizzard forecast for the afternoon, so we go out, run some errands, get back home as it begins to snow, and are now stuck in the house, with nowhere else to go. I’m in the bedroom folding clothes; he’s in the living room watching football. He gets a phone call.
Me: Who was it?
Him: My sister.
Me: What did she want?
Him: Nothing.
Me: Ok.
Few minutes later, I hear someone coming up the steps, into the apartment… I hear him go to his dresser, back into the living room, back to the dresser, person leaves.
Me: Who was that?
Him: My sister (as he’s walking into the bedroom.)
Me: What did she want?
Him: Nothing.
I give him the “huh?” look… I found it odd, but didn’t pay it much mind, until the grin on his face started growing, a sure sign he’s up to something.
Me: What happened? What did she want?
Again, the grin grows.
Him: No, it was nothing….(super grin)… I don’t know if I should tell you.
I give the “huh?” look again, this time a bit more intense, because now I’m confused.
Me: What?
The super grin now turns into laughter.
Me: Ooo-kaaay, tell me, what is it? (mildly laughing, awaiting his response)
Him: Uhh…(pause, because he’s thinking of what to say) …nothing, my sister got me a cologne.
I begin to CRY. I’m upset.
Me: Why did you get another one? I got you one for Christmas! I knew you didn’t like the gift! I knew you were expecting that watch! (cue more tears)
He begins to LAUGH.
Him: Babe, it’s not what you think.
Me: What? No! You got cologne! Why would you get another one? You didn’t like my gift!
He’s really laughing now, and amidst my crying, I crack a smile too, but not too much, I want to show him I’m upset, but not really.
Him: Honey, of course I liked your gift! But trust me, it’s nothing! It’s not what you think!
Me: Ok, so then tell me what it is!
I get up. I head towards the dresser. I’m thinking he got me another Christmas gift. He stops me.
Him: Babe, c’mon! It’s nothing!! (laughing)
Me: No! What is it?? (laughing too)
He tries to hold me back lightly, with kisses here and there, and laughs, mixed with my tears. I slip past him, and get to the dresser, open it, start rummaging through it.
Him: Babe…(laughing)
Looking, looking. I find nada. I turn around.
Me: Ok. Forget it. I give up.
I head back towards the bedroom, sit on the bed, begin folding clothes again.
Him: Babe…
Me: No, no, forget it (laughing) I don’t wanna know. It’s ok. (look up at him and smile)
He, walks over, looks into my eyes, grabs my face and says…
Him: Honey, you know I love you, right?
Me: Of course.
Him: You know that I want to spend the rest of my life with you, right?
Me: Of course (smiling, and getting teary eyed again; feel that something special inside tingling)
Him: Jo, will you marry me?
Me: Of course!! But… what is this? I was talking about a cologne? What’s going on??
Him: (chuckles) Don’t worry babe, it’s not a cologne. Wait… was that a yes?
Me: Huh? Yes!! I mean yes! YES I want to marry you! (eyes streaming down my face...again!)
Him: Ok, hang on!
He heads to the dresser, takes something out, walks back in the bedroom with his hand behind him…
Me: No. No. (I cover my face, crying hysterically, overcome with emotion) Oh-my-God- Oh-my-God- Oh-my-God- OH-MY GOD!!!!! NO WAY! NO!! NO WAY YOU HAVE THE RING!!!
He walks towards me, smiling, eyes welling up with tears, gets on one knee, while I cover my face and begin to cry, and he says…
Him: Jo, will you be my wife? (tears streaming down his face)
Me: YES! YES! Oh my GOD! YES!!
It was BEAUTIFUL, romantic, sweet, just perfect!! Again, sorry for this being so long!!! But I had to share! It was just the most amazing feeling and experience I've EVER had in my life We're both just so happy, and I'm STILL elated, in shock and just HAPPY!! Oh, and for those of you wondering, the sister just wanted to borrow some money
