I don''t feel like an idiot any more! My bf, well now fi, proposed to me on Saturday morning. So please take me off the list. We picked a date today and have the church. Yeah we move fast.
Thank you everyone for your constant support and feedback.
hehe! Congratulations!!!!! When I saw your subject header I thought to myself, wouldn''t that be funny if she was posting to say she''s engaged now? And wow! You are fast, but there''s no need to dwell when you know what you want
i have to admit, on the other thread, i was firmly keeping my mouth shut-- not adding to the greek chorus of older ladies telling you not to move forward without a ring. ha ha.
I am so completely sorry for the delay in posting. I started a new job in a new career field and have been almost blind sided with a "to do" list.
My FI''s (Hehe. that sounds so weird) did something very simple, very us. He took me to a park in our area so he could take photos, his hobbie. I took some photos of my own and then I went and sat on a log. It was freezing here or to me what it freezing, so I was in my jacket, what my FI calls my OJ gloves, and my hood over my head. He came and sat by me, said he loved me. I said I love you too. Then he kissed me about 30 seconds later. About a minute after that, he reaches into his camera bag, pulls out the ring, gets on one knee and asks me. I, of course, say yes.
The ring is definitely bigger than what I thought it was going to be.
It is a 0.77ct G SI1 (with only one inclusion on the top, under a pong most likely). It is a unique shape. The jeweler said it is a mix between an asscher, radiant and oval and the actually GIA report it is called a cornered cut modified square brillant. The setting is something I picked out two months ago.
We didn''t do anything special afterwards. We went to McDonald''s (which is a big treat for us since we are both on Weight Watchers) and went apartment shopping for him ( which I will move into about a month after him). We did find a place that would fit all of our stuff.
So now... for the pictures... I hope I can do this since I''ve never posted pictures before and sorry for the typos, I am typing this in kinda a hurry!
The picture of the ring on the side, it shows some marks on it, we are going to go to the jeweler to talk about it and get my ring sized (he knew my ring sized, but they wouldn''t let him get it in the size without personally sizing me).
congrats!!!!!! and what a lovely ing you have........ wonder who will be coming in with a V-day proposal....how esciting... i love reading proposal stories
