We met on a dating site called Plenty of Fish - weird right? We embrace it! Rebecca still has Bryce's name as "Bryce POF," maybe just to be a brat ;) Our first date was going to see Jigsaw, since Rebecca only watches scary movies. We also had drive thru Chinese food for the first and last time. We started dating within a month of meeting each other.
From Rebecca- Bryce is TERRIBLE with keeping secrets and surprises from me. We talked about getting married for a while, but I knew that I would notice any ring purchases in our bank account. Plus he loses everything. We were kicked out of our apartment, living with Bryce's sister and her family (Thank God for Sheryce and Brian), and saving up for buying our first house. After a long day at a job I hated, Bryce asked me to go fishing. I was so excited to outfish him... again. We drove to the nearest lake that we knew of in the area, which was full of weeds and tiny fish. I got my rod out right away, since I'm very competitive. Bryce was taking forever to set up his line and was tinkering in his tackle box. I caught one tiny fish, and Bryce was very insistent on taking it off. Me being me, I took it off myself - without touching it - and had my line back in the water. Then Bryce FINALLY cast. I had a little nibble and got super excited. Bryce said he got a bite too, and gave me his rod to reel it in. I was way too excited to be catching a fish, so I took his rod and tossed it on the ground next to me, and told him "This is way more important right now." As I was reeling in my 1 inch long fish. Bryce said my name, and I turned around really crabby and said "WHAT." He was on his knee behind me with a ring dangling from the end of his fishing line. He didn't want me to take the fish off my line because he didn't want my hands smelling like fish. He was hooking my ring onto his line while I thought he was tinkering in his tackle box. He had gone with his sister to buy a ring for me before and kept it a secret for months. God, I love this man. Long story short, I literally told Bryce that catching a 1 inch fish was way more important than him proposing.... Also, he threw my ring into a weedy, gross lake with no insurance on it.
