I met Kathy coincidentally through a mutual friend and we immediately clicked! It was bizarre how easily we meshed and how much we had in common, and in no time we were dating. Over time, it was very clear we were meant to be, and though young, we each had already resolved that this would last and blossom. I met her family and she met mine, and I knew it was time to pop the question! After taking her Grandfather and Father's blessings, I began planning how to ask her. I had an elaborate proposal planned, and a ring in my hand, yet instead of locking her down, there was a lockdown. With circumstances not looking promising and my certainty ever-increasing, I determined to make the best of the situation. Through an elaborate ploy where her cousins convinced her to get dressed up for a Tiktok, I knelt down on one knee (an exercise I had rehearsed until my leg was sore the night before) and asked her to marry me! Though my initial plans of her dream Disneyland proposal were foiled, on the first of May I successfully surprised the love of my life and asked her to marry me as the sun dipped into the horizon!
