Our love story has no official beginning, or at least one that we have uncovered. Almost 3 years later and we still have no idea how he ended up with my name and number in his phone. We’ve exhausted all possibilities of physically crossing paths in real life or having mutual friends in which one could have been stalking the other lol. Although I started our journey with very cautious footsteps, it seemed like Julian already knew our fate. No matter how many times I had prayed for love and prayed for signs, I guess when they’re staring you in the face, you just can’t see them for yourself. Nonetheless, our conversations quickly turned into never getting off of the phone and texting all day long, so when we finally met in person a month later, it seemed like we knew each other forever. Julian seemed too perfect to be true so being the cautious human that I am lol it took me almost 6 months to realize that whatever our souls are made of, mine and his are the same 🥰. Long distance is a challenge and it’s a very bumpy roller coaster, but we truly believe that our God in heaven brought us together and no man will ever break us apart.
Angela thought we were going on a romantic dinner date. But before we made it to the “restaurant”, I asked her to put on a blindfold and led her into a room. I told her to count down from 15, and then take the blindfold off. When she took the blindfold off, she saw all of her friends and family, as well as mine. Everyone was there — except for me. (I was hiding behind the curtain lol) there was a note given to her prompting her to press play on the laptop that was sitting in front of her. A video started to play of me talking to her telling her how this was the day I was going to ask her to be my wife, but I wasn’t sure on the perfect way to propose to her. So the rest of the short film were skits of me trying to propose to her in the “perfect” way, but all of them ending in failure. Once I finally figured out the right way to propose, I asked her (in the video) to turn around… and there I was standing behind her. I recited a short speech to her and then finally proposed (after pranking her a couple of times with an empty ring box) and luckily for me, she said yes!
