Martha and Arvin first met in the young adult cell group which happen to be at Martha's apartment in downtown Winnipeg. Since then, they've been seeing each other at church and cell group every week. As they are on the same group, they became friends for quite some time. However, they were not close and they barely talking to each other.
Arvin admitted to their friends that he liked March for quite some time but doesn't know how to express his feelings for her. His helpful friends came up ideas on how he could confess. The planning started....
Arvin started to befriend March, sending her hints that he likes her. He frequently sends her messages and liking her social media pictures that she posted in the past. Although March noticed his actions, she did not confront him and waited for him to tell her personally. She does not want to ruin his style or strategy.
After a lot of pushing and teasing endured from friends, Arvin decided to ask March and her sister to have dinner with him ( that's when the famous Chosabi story happened that you would probably hear on our wedding). They ate and talk. He walked her home and never confessed. #confessionepicfail
He tried again. He asked her to have dinner with him at Moxie's. This time, it's just the two of them. They ate and had a good conversation but still, he wasn't able to confess. He walked her home and left. After 20 minutes of mustering courage, he called her to the backlane of her apartment. Enduring tachycardia, he finally asked her, " pwede ba akong manligaw?". #confessionsuccess #sweatandblood
Arvin started to court her. He would pick her up from work at 12 midnight and walk her home every night. And then, March started to see him clearly.
After months of courtship, March realize that she is falling for him and so she decided to say yes. They officially became a couple during their movie date.
After 6 months of being a couple, Arvin proposed to March during her birthday at the prairie 360 restaurant. Again, Arvin wasn't able to say the speech that he had prepared. Nevertheless, it was a joyous occasion for the both of them.
Arvin and his family went to the Philippines to meet March's family as formally asked her hand in marriage.
This is the day that they will stand in front of every God and the congregation to vow and pledge their love for each other for life.
