On Sandy’s 60th surprise birthday party at Fallon’s house. I had decided to attend after debating for a few days. While I adore Sandy, I was not big on socializing as I didn’t really know anyone other than Sandy. Matthew was there and didn’t know me other than I had worked at the credit union for his mother previously, even though I had had a crush on him since elementary school. To be nice I had offered to drive Matthew home. On the drive home he kept flirting with me, and we decided to go on a date, to get to know each other now that he noticed me finally! I fell for him almost immediately we have grown into better people and an incredible team, together we are so happy and cannot wait to begin our journey as spouses with our little family.

I had jokingly proposed to Matthew in a hot tub with a ring pop, he declined laughing, joking it was because the ring wasn’t good enough. He did not know at the time I had already ordered him an actual ring and was waiting for it to come . I chose to propose to him unconventionally. While in my Stans Auto Body t-shirt and work boots. Matthew was watching tv on the couch and sick with Covid. I popped the question in total role reversal I got down on one knee with his ring. He laughed at me and said yes, we then called his mother to tell her. He showed her the ring all girly flashing his hand and she laughed at us too saying how she loves us both.
