Hi everyone, just wanted to share my story...
We’ve been doing a lot of research on diamond, and he told me he bought the ring last month. Yet he insisted that I wait till we go to Disney World this January. Needless to say, I fantasized about the event in every possible scenario, mostly magic-related moments like the wishing well, Cinderella castle, or under the fireworks. Browsing through this website and seeing everyone’s beautiful diamonds really does not help ease my anxiety.
We went to Tavern on the Green, and dinner was a lot better than expected; we felt like we were traveling outside of the city because of the restaurant’s tranquility and the European tourists. There was also staff taking photo of us, to remember the day! After dinner, he led me to the garden, now a hundred times more beautiful because of the sparkly lanterns and lighting. He started trembling, so I told him to put on his jacket. He started saying silly things as we walked around the garden like: I love you…so I laughed and said I love you too. He asked me if I thought this is such a romantic place. I laughed again and told him: You silly, don’t tell me you are going to propose! As soon as I said it, I got nervous. Even more so when he said: What if I am? OMG, I was scared, I couldn’t believe it is happening. He kneeled down and pulled out a nice little box. He was saying something that I did not seem to hear any more, and then he opened the box…..
OMG, it was empty!!!! I thought I was confused and scared, but his face was white like a sheet. Where did it go? So lucky the moment was transient as I quickly put two and two together and found the ring fell in my bloomies shopping bag, where he put his jacket. Phew! Now, our moment starts.
I was a little scared because this is a huge decision, but I have known all along that this is the man I want to be with. Many nights I woke up from the work-related nightmares and thanked God he is here next to me. With him beside, I am no longer alone, no longer fighting on my own. Being in the city by myself and working in a stressful industry, I need someone who can understand my work, who can accompany me in my quest, and who can help me when I fall. He has proved all that. I have found for myself a wonderful, intelligent yet so humble man, and that is more beautiful, more sparkling than the diamond on my finger right now.
