Truly short and sweet. While attending Lake Superior State University Mike and I virtually ran into each other on tinder in true introvert fashion. After nervously getting to know each other over the web for a month or so we met for coffee and the rest is history. We've come to find out over the years how many times we had been in the same tiny apartment party with each other or literally next door without our lines of fate entwining until we set out to make it happen ourselves in the fashion of our viking ancestors. You can't leave it up to fate, you have to go after the happiness you want for yourself. Fast forward 5 years. My parents, his parents, my friends and his friend are asking the same question "What's taking so long?". In true Michael fashion he asked for my parents blessing in August of 2019 and waited untill January 2020 to start trying to plan the proposal.... Sorry let me reword that... ....he waited untill January to trick ME into trying to plan the proposal. He mentions multiple times he wants to do an Escape Room with our friends and we end up having to reschedule multiple times to get everyone there in the last weekend of February. We had taken a trip to Niagara Falls a few weeks before that and I was riding a wave of disappointment that he hadn't taken the opportunity to propose there so I was trying not to get my hopes up that it was happening now. Well turns out it was and in my excitement of completing the room I had forgotten my suspicions completely and ended up not only enjoying myself but was very surprised in the moment. He took his sweet time but it was worth the wait.
