I am so unbelievably happy..the man I love asked me to marry him today..and it was the best, wackiest proposal, ever

We live a few hours apart and I went to visit him this weekend. I inadvertently left my makeup case at his house and he jumped in the car to bring it to me.. I told him I would pick it up next time I drove out to see him..he wasn't having it..he chased me for 70 miles to a Love's gas station to give it to me. The makeup case was just an excuse though, he had been trying to screw up his nerve to ask me to marry him all weekend long..

So there we were in the parking lot of Love's (!!) gas station, and he pulls out a ring and asks me to marry him..we are laughing and crying and kissing, people are gawking at us..it was crazy and romantic and the best day ever.

I said YAAASS!!!!

ETA: I showed this thread to my fiancé and he was incredibly touched by such warm responses. He also learned that I used to weigh 274 lbs and said not a word. He's a keeper!!

Yay! It was sweet of him, even if he did have ulterior motives ;)

Not sure I'd have been able to get back on the road after that, how did you manage not taking a day off? Congrats!

Hey at least he finally did it. I proposed to my wife in the Thousands Island we were about to go on a dusk boat tour. A huge storm hit and lightning stuck like 5 feet from us. The cool part is that it made a double rainbow happen. So I think when it does not go as planned that are the best ones. I wish you the best of luck and the tip that Fall/winter weddings are usually cheaper because it is the off season.

Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.
