Daniel's Side of The Story.

We thought it would be a good idea for Daniel to tell his side of the story, so here it goes.

Daniels Side:

Ever since I met Becky I thought she was hot. So I of course had to be charming and funny - ALL THE TIME! It was pretty hard to do. After a few months of working together I had gotten to know Becky a bit. This is when I heard about Jail Bait. We had nicknamed her current boyfriend Jail Bait because he was under eighteen and she was over. So all of my hopes were dashed... There was no chance of me getting a date when she had a boyfriend. So, as you can imagine I was secretly very happy when I learned they had broken up. So I resumed flirting with Becky at every opportunity. Until one day when we were joking about the possibility of us going out she told me "You remind me of my brother." This was another setback. It was'nt until later that my friend Dave told me to keep trying that I continued my efforts.

Then one day after we went to the dinosaur park I was on the roof of the parking garage beating up on one of our friends with bamboo swords when I got a text from Becky saying "There is something I want to tell you, but i'm nervous." I trying to act cool said. "What is it?" When the next text came my heart jumped. "I like you." I guess I didn't answer fast enough cause she texted me again very quickly wondering why I hadn't responded yet. Then after the first akward date everything worked out perfectly. I couldn't ask for it to be any different.

Engaged!

As many of you already know, I am now engaged! The date has not yet been set, but when it is I'm sure you will all be informed.

I will tell you all a little bit about Daniel and I. We met when I first started working at The Megaplex at the beginning of May last year. This job was really easy for me to get, and I always felt that there was a reason I was working there. I think Daniel might have even been there on my first day of work. He was sweet and charismatic since the day I met him. He was sarcastic and fun, and I had a good time working with him. We quickly became what you might call "work friends". We talked a lot when we worked together, shared fun stories and just got to know each other, there and at the occasional activity outside of work.

Daniel liked me the whole time; I was dating someone else. It was after that relationship ended that I realized I liked Daniel, and actually had for a long time, but was in denial. Even though I now admitted that I liked him, I in no way wanted to act upon this feeling. We worked together, and I didn't want things to be awkward if it didn't work out. After much convincing from my friends, and a text sent by my friend, Daniel knew I liked him, and he soon asked me out.

It was a very short time after we started dating that I knew he was the person that I was going to marry. He knew that I wanted to propose, and I did. I sent him a giant fortune cookie, and the fortune inside read "The future is now in your hands; Will you marry me?" I was there when he opened it, and he unreluctantly said yes. We decided to tell our families together, so we waited a bit and planned a BBQ. We ate, and after I prodded Daniel a bit he annouced we were engaged. Everyone pretty much all saw it coming, so it wasn't a huge surprise or anything. My dad did cry, but that was expected.

I will post pictures of my ring when I have it, it is currently being sized. I'm a bit nontraditional, so it is a ruby, not a diamond.

Thank you everyone for your love and support. I felt the background change was appropriate.
