Ok so this might be a little strange, but I lurk here alot and have posted a few times ( different names at time - ex h was stalking my posts, so had to change as he tried to intimidate me with things). Wanted to share a little story with you.


Started OLD 8 months ago, only dated one guy from there, still am. Friday at work ( doctors office ) I am called to the front to speak with the office manager ( good friend - couldn't imagine why). Get to the front and she points to a rose on the counter and asks " Is that yours?" "I don't think so, " I replied. Then one of the other girls says " Are you sure?" So I pull it toward me looking for the florist tag and see a ring tucked into the ribbon!!! My SO comes out from around the charts and says " It could be yours...."


I melted, he proposed and I said YES!!!

Thanks for the congrats! We are going to give kids a little while (not too long I hope!) to adjust to the thought of it and then run off to Vegas or something similar, I don't want a big fuss and neither does he.


My kids seem to be fine with the thought, but their dad just remarried recently, so don't want to hit them with too much (15y/o dd and 9y/o ds). He has one in college that comes home most weekends who doesn't seem to really care( typical teen-18y/o ds ) and a 20 y/o dd that is handicapped and will live with us that has lots of concerns.


We will have to find a house in my town ( they live 30 miles away) as my dd would be crushed to have to change schools at this point ( she is a Sophomore).

wow, seems like you found your guy finally. And he seems romantic too with all that proposal.


Seems like both of you are well grounded and care for your kids and I am sure you will have a great life together.
