Me: BS 50 (at the time) Him: WH 53 (at the time) D-Day: 10/25/15 Married: 28 years. One son, age 18 (at the time)
D final 2016 REMARRIED to a marvelous guy on 4/22/23
We are engaged!
We got engaged on December 22! I was in my jammies with wet hair when he came and put his arms around me and asked if I would like to get married. I said "really?" and then "YES!" He has just been beaming through the whole holiday weekend. Told his family first - his mom cried - and they all said I've been family from the first time they met me. Told my brother who was so excited that I told him before mom or sister. He was so excited on the phone; he is always asking us when we are getting married. The rest of my family is all excited as well. BF spoke with DS before he asked me, so DS knew when I called him. He is very happy for us also.
My sister used the f-word: fiance! It sounds so strange.
We are both BS. We've talked about it (getting married) in the past, but mostly about the practicalities and I am surprised how romantic it feels right now. He just grins and keeps thinking of people that we need to call and tell so we do it together. I love that he is all in. He has told me that he's 100% from the beginning and he just keeps proving it.
