“We’re getting married!”

So I think everyone knows by now, we met on a dating app called Tinder. When we first matched, I asked him “Is your name really Colter?”. From there on we kept snapchatting each other. Colter kept wanting to meet and go out on a date, but I blew him off for months. I came up with so many excuses for no reason. Until one day, I was meeting my friends at the library before class. Before the doors of the elevator closed, here he walks in. We glanced at each other multiple times until he finally said something to me. And the rest is history!

When we hit that 4 year mark of being together , I kept hinting to him about engagement. We’d go to the mall and I’d show him what rings I loved. I’d talk to him during our car rides on how I’d like the proposal to be. I gave him so many ideas and suggestions to the point where I’d annoy him and have to stop for a while. When it hit 4 1/2 years I finally started thinking “He’s just not going to propose until he’s ready. I have to stop nagging him”. As the month went on, we had our annual ΛΧΑ golf outing. Day one we got into town and went to an alumni meeting, pregamed with drinks at Edinboro Hotel, then finally went to our softball game. As the boys were about to start playing, I remember I had to take a box to the car. When I came back my friend Hailey grabbed my drink out of my hand and I heard Colter say, “McKenna, I love you with all my heart. These past 4 1/2 years have been amazing…”. From there I blacked out from everything he was saying because I was in such shock! From there he got down on his knee and asked me to spend the rest of my life with him!
