We both used to work at the same mall. I worked in retail and he worked as a supervisor for security. He randomly walked into the store I was working at and we had a small friendly conversation. After that day, we started to see each other everywhere. I didn't think much of it, until I got a new job at another retail store. Turns out, one of my coworkers was friends with him. We spent the whole summer together, next thing you know, he became my best friend, my everything. It was fate.

This is the day he asked me to be his girlfriend. Cute thing is, he asked me to be his girlfriend at the location where we first met. So cheesy.

Erik originally wanted to propose on Christmas Day. A serious health issue happened with him which lead him to purpose early. He was scared, I was scared, and we didn't have answers. Out of the blue, in our bedroom, on Veterans Day, playing our favorite song, he got down on one knee and proposed. I said yes! (obviously.)
