Tommy and I met on a dating site called clover. I came across his photo and his face caught my eye. He certainly played hard to get the second time around but I'm glad that we were able to actually met in person since I was living in Va at the time and he was in MD. We did the "long distance" relationship for a while and I then got a job offer in Maryland to work in real estate in Laurel and it was perfect! I moved to Glen Burnie and he came with me. 4 years later here we are
We went down to Va to visit my mother and sister and Tom said this when he asked my mother and sister if her could ask for my hand. My sister was so excited she said because I found someone that "understands" me as she puts it. My mother was very happy as well. Few weeks later, Tom and i were headed to Las Vegas, NV for his parents wedding anniversary. This was my first time on a plane so I was very overwhelmed. We were separated from each other on the line so i was sitting by myself. I wasn't expecting it to be that way at all. I was holding on to a complete strangers hand for dear life the entire flight. My anxiety medication hadn't kicked in at all and i was not in the best mood. We landed in Denver and I ran so fast to the front of the plane to be near him. A few moments later i was "very relaxed" so unfortunatelyhe had to carry me the entire time until we made it to Vegas. Few days go by and we take a trip out to see the skyline in the Grand Canyon and it was very hot! you guys know me, I don't do the heat but i was down to try something new. It was so bright and the wind was blowing hard and I felt him tap me on my shoulder. The entire time i thought we were taking pictures and his cousin Josh was filming our proposal. I looked over and he was down on one knew and i couldn't believe. I was in shocked. I dropped my umbrella on my foot and i just started to cry. I said yes of course! it was magically. We were overlooking Eagle Point at the Grand Canyon and it was breath taking. People were standing around clapping, crying, cheering it was very moving. I was so excited. I kept looking at my ring all day.
