When sliding into someone's DM's turns out the good way. It's quite simple he sent me a message on Facebook messenger one day a few years back. We hung out for a bit and decided now is just not the time. For many years I ignored him, yet he never gave up. Then one day he slid in those DM's again and took me on a date; you know a breakfast quesadilla can really bring people together. One date turned to two, two turned into once a week. A few months later we celebrated a couple holidays together and realized our kids loved to be with each other and thought huh this instant family may work.
The proposal was toooooootaly not like the movies. I woke up one morning and had a conversation with Jeffrey about life in general. He then looks at me with this weird glazed look in his eyes. It may have been the sleep goop but whatevs lol. While I was still in my pj's and hair still tied up he gets down on one knee, grabs my hand, and starts this random speech. I said "Jeffrey you can't seriously do what I think your about to do what I think your're about to do and I look like this." He takes my bestfriends bonnet and puts it on his head and says "see now we look the same". He then says he wants to spend the rest of his life with me and he can't do another 5 years of Facebook messaging me to see if he can finally take me on a date. I sappily cry a little bit and mumble "YES!" and that was it now we're here. (its ok you can grab the tissues!) See you down by the water!!
