It was the beginning of my 8th grade year and mathews 7th grade year. We where both at bagley park; mathew was with a group of friends and he saw me and told his friend, who unknowingly knew me since 1st grade. "shes gonna be my wife some day". His friend mentioned that i he knew me and mathew said “i know her to; her names cute” his friends looked at him like he was crazy and told him to go talk to me so he did... he walked up to me and said i think your cute and I said I had a boyfrined and he ran home . A few days later he showed up at my house and i asked if he was following me and he said “I’m here with chris and he didnt even know i lived here” .
Throughout the years mathew & I hungout here and there. After 4 years, Mathew & I became apart of the same friend group. We began hangout alot during the summer of 2017 ; which is the same summer he tried acting like he didnt like me anymore and said shes like a sister to me …. he was invited to a party I was throwing Mathew swares up and down I practically laid on top of him ( NEVER HAPPENED 😂), I ended up posting a picture of us on snapchat that night saying “ fun night with this cutie “. I walked him out when he left the party , where he proceeded to try and be cool and almost breaking his face jumping down the stairs. I asked for him for his snapchat & we have spent all but maybe 2 week apart since.
Mathew spent months planning the perfect way to pop the question ! We went to the vancouver waterfront, mathew had invited our families. But thanks to covid things didnt go as planned and the engagement ring didnt show up on time . Mathews was going to cancel the whole thing because he was upset it was “ruined”, but thankfully he was talked into still proposing & he got down on one knee and asked me to merry him with a berry blast ring pop.
