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.

Thanks for sharing. It is good to hear a little more of the story. Expect a few more tears from Dad - he just can't believe his "baby" is getting married, but he is happy for you.
I agree with Minda, good to hear some more details. Dad cried a bit when Minda and I got married too, but you are the baby.
YAY! See what happens when you listen to me? You get engaged, thats right :). Love you so much! That Danny boy is a lucky one.
