Our story began during the pandemic outbreak in the states. We met via online dating app. After exchanging messages for about a week, Jalen asked me out to take a walk in a park near my neighborhood (compliance to the CDC safety guidance lol). The first date was relaxing and natural. After that, he tried to ask me out every single day and we always have endless topics during our dates. I felt there must be something between us.
Before the Valentine's day, I sensed Jalen was planning something, but wasn't sure what it would be. However, the unexpected winter storm kept us at home and it turned out to be a White Valentine’s day. I thought probably we just chill at home for the rest of day. Surprisingly, the house was decorated with balloons and flowers. When the “Crash Landing on You” music was turned on (the theme song of the K-drama we watched together), I looked over at Jalen who was down on one knee with the bling-bling in his hand. I started to cry and never thought he would propose this way. His eyes are full of love and sincerity. I couldn’t hold back any more and said “YES”. We are so excited to celebrate our next chapter with you!
