So really it was OKCupid, but what's the difference? Max chose mini golf for the first date, insisted on keeping score, and lost horribly. For the second date Ashley picked a vinyasa yoga class and the heat definitely built. For the third, Max took Ashley skiing, which she had done only once 10 years prior. She ate it numerous times crashing on the slopes but still had a great time and that's when they both knew, this could really work out.
Max knew that their winter trip to Cabo was the perfect time to propose. The only issue - the ring wasn't ready in time. After returning home, Max worked on a plan B, trying to think of something that could rival a proposal on the beach in Mexico. But secrets are not his strong suit and he couldn't help but surprise himself and pop the question a few nights later as Ashley sat in bed in her PJs, snuggling with Brutus. It couldn't have been more sincere - no frills, no show, just honest love. Ashley said yes!
