We are getting married!

We messaged back and for over a week after we matched - Yes, we matched! We talked like we had known each other forever. Charles was on vacation, but we had already planned to get together as soon as he was back in town. Our first date was at a bowling alley. Charles’ charming smile got me, and he was melted by my big eyes. Since then, we kept seeing each other at least twice a week despite the 40 mile-distance between us. I knew he was the one. We were meant to be.

Andrea had been wanting me to pop the question for 11 months 29 days. There were times when she would get upset thinking that I would never ask her. She told me I had a year to do it, so that is why I did it two days before that one year was up. Needless to say she was getting frustrated with me waiting and waiting for me to ask. I had planned to do something sweet, but waiting any longer might have cost me the love of my life. For her birthday, I took her out to a fancy dinner at Selva Grill, afterwards went to a bar on top of a skyscraper with her best friend and husband. There was another group of people who were celebrating their 30th birthday, so Andrea and her friend went over to steal their 30th ballon and take pictures. Just before the picture was taken, I ran up to her and got on one knee to pop the question. It may not have been as romantic as I wanted, but it surprised her making her happy and making me the happiest man alive.
