We met on tinder the most ridiculous app. However when we swiped right on each other, the first comment James said to Elizabeth was “happy thanksgiving” but Elizabeth wanted to be a bit petty by responding “happy indigenous peoples day”. It sounded a bit passive aggressive but nevertheless James still continued to talk to Elizabeth. This went on for a few weeks before he kept asking to meet however, she was very reluctant to meet in person. Finally after she had her surgery she decided it was time to meet him in person and they did and the rest is history.
It all started when Elizabeth left for a crazy road trip in the middle of a winter storm on the way to California by herself. This was the moment that both have ended up calling each other daily to make sure that Elizabeth was okay. James knew in that moment how much he really starting to fall for her that he prayed throughout the trip and made sure that she stayed at the hotel. Elizabeth was really stubborn throughout the whole trip thinking everything will be fine (it wasn't, it was really crazy lol). That one night in Texas when Elizabeth stayed at a friends home, she was thinking a lot about how much she really is falling for James that she was also drinking and confessed her love to him through text message ( She doesn't remember). The following evening, he confessed his through a FaceTime call. Both realized how much they really care and love for one another and could not wait to be back into each others arms.
This was a funny story. It happened on a very early morning in July a few days before Elizabeth has to fly to California to pick up her children. Elizabeth was in a very sad mood however, James had already ordered the engagement ring and was going to propose when she comes back. Instead of waiting for the ring, he decided to look up online on how to sign "Will you marry me?". He practiced until he decided to propose without a ring. Yes without a ring. Elizabeth just stared at him for a while and thought "is he seriously proposing without a ring?". Yes he did proposed without a ring. He was worried because she did not respond. He told Elizabeth that she hasn't said yes. Which Elizabeth cleverly responded with "I haven't said no either". So with that she made up her mind and said yes to James. He was relieved. Poor guy.
