We’re getting married!

Tyler and I met when we were 11 years old in middle school. The first time he asked me out was at water fountain. I was so shy, I told him my parents wouldn’t let me date and hurried away. Throughout high school we were on and off, neither one of us exactly sure how to handle being in a serious relationship. Teenagers, am I right? My freshman year was spent at Appalachian State and I transferred in 2014 back to UNC Charlotte. In 2017 we reconnected and began dating again while he was working full time and I was finishing my degree. March 9, 2019 On a Sunday morning, we were messing around how we had been together long enough to be engaged and Tyler made a joke that we weren’t that serious anyways. I hide under a blanket on the couch fake pouting (I knew he was joking) and he was laughing so hard. All of a sudden I could feel him next to me and he was telling me to uncover my head and to LOOK. When I opened my eyes, he was kneeling beside me asking me to marry him. 💙 OF COURSE I SAID YES.
