We initially met at my sister Chelsi's graduation party in 2015. A family friend had brought Gus with him, even though we didn't talk, we were always in each other's presence. Later that year I had a skating party which the family friend and Gus were invited to, but we still didn't manage to have a conversation besides greeting each other. During summer 2018, we happened to both be at the same gathering of our mutual friend. That night will go on to be the most special night, because it was the very first time after three years, we finally got to know one another, which sparked our love flame.

From the moment we started dating we've always looked for cute ways to stay in touch. Since we live two hours away from each other, we agreed that writing letters would be a way for us to express our love in a romantic way. Our letters were written with a view of not having modern technology around. We took turns writing each other letters after receiving one from the other person. This is how the idea of the proposal began...

Walking into the restaruant, I was handed a letter which had my name on the outside. I then quickly realized that it was Gustav's handwriting and that this was the letter I've been anticipating for a while. As I opened it and began reading the words I knew something was going on but couldn't wrap my head around it. I began walking up the stairs and was greeted by his close friends who all had roses which were handed to me one by one. Getting to the top of the stairs, I turned around and there my Gustav was with a bouquet of flowers and smiling for dear life, LOL. As I approached him he gave me a big hug, handed me the flowers, expressed his love to me, and got down on one knee asking me to spend the rest of my life with him. I said YES to the love of my life, after which we were showered with love by our family and friends. February 15, 2020 will be marked as one of the most memorable days of my life.
