Hey all!! So I've been writing bits and pieces of our love story here and there so I'll put all the clippings together all together in one place so you guys could easily follow. Haha!! Well my name is Missie and my fantastic Fiancee is Rey.
We met over 4 years ago when he had just started college and I was going into my last year of high school. We were brought together through an old friend who we no longer talk to. I actually saw his profile on her MySpace and told her I thought he was cute. Haha, so thanks to her she brought us together and we started talking. On our first date we went to his house and went swimming. His parents were on a 3 month vacation in Europe and his brother and sister not home. As he drove me up to his house I thought he was going to rape and kill me because we were going through the hills and trees to get to his house. (We laugh back at that all the time!!) Anyways, we went swimming in the back yard and when I saw him in his swimming trunks I swore I creamed in my panties. He was sooooo hot in that studly body of his (when we met 4+ years ago, he was training A LOT in martial arts so he used to be really fit with the nicest flattest tummy!! How love has changed him and how all my "love" aka cooking has gotten to him. LMAO). He started to cuddle in the pool, him holding me and my legs wrapped around him as we kissed. Then we heard the door open to the side gate and people talking. In comes his sister, and her three friends. We get out the pool to say hi. His sister asked if I was his girlfriend. I pretended that I didn't hear. Then her friend asked me if I was his girlfriend, I couldn't pretend I didn't hear her, I mean we were looking at each other holding a conversation!! So I was like, "Uhhh, I'm going swimming!!" So she looked at DF and said "So is that your girlfriend??" And DF looked at me and looked back at her and said, "Yes." Once they left I was like, "Uhh did you mean what you told them??" And he said, "Uhh if that's okay with you." And we've now been together ever since, and now happily engaged. We look back now and laugh at how cute we were, little kiddies who've fallen in love. His sister now tells us they all made bets on us. They didn't think we'd last long because I was his FIRST girlfriend. She said 2 months, while two friends of hers said 4-6, and her BF at the time had the most faith in us and said a year or so. We all laugh thinking back at this all of the time because now we're engaged and will be spending the rest of our lives together!!
I've been so excited to get engaged and I always thought it would be somewhere so romantic. I always imagined it on the beach together but we aren't near any beaches. (I was born in San Diego, but we rarely go to the beach there because we're so busy.) So when we went to Disneyland back in 2007 and I thought he was going to propose to me then. I was so thrilled and told my Mom and my then BFF. And sadly it didn't happen and kind of put a damper on my vacation. A few months later my then BFF ended up going to Disneyland and getting engaged there herself.
For my next birthday we were going to go to Hawaii and I thought maybe he'd propose to me then, but I seriously didn't want to get my hopes up. My Mom and my then BFF told me to just think it wouldn't happen, I mean I didn't want this to damper my trip again. So here I was packing for my vacation and I just really wanted to know if he would propose so like an anxious little wanna know everything freak I just asked. He laughed at me and said no. I said, "Are you suuuure??" (LOL) and he said to reassure me I can even check his luggage!! And I did!! Nothing was there!! I even checked when we arrived in Hawaii and nope, no box ANYWHERE!! (and trust me, I looked in all the zippered areas and hidden compartments!) On my birthday vacation we were visiting family and just enjoy the island together. (He's been there previously and so have I but it was out first time together. Anyways, because I have family there and he has friends there we were always surrounded by people no time by ourselves. So I already knew he didn't have the ring, and we were meeting his friend in a few hours so we just chilled together on the beach to kill time.
He was acting all weird, I figured he just really wanted to go into the water, but I didn't want to at the time. Then he kept wanting to go into parts of the water that a lot of people weren't in, but I kept saying how I didn't want to leave our valuables alone away from my view. He saw some guy with these weird gadgets and metal detectors and he was really wanting to go and see what this guy was doing. I didn't want to, just let the guy do what he's doing man!! So he dropped the guy but then he kept wanting to go "over there, there's less people. Let's play in the water there." So finally I said okay and we just walked in the water a bit and I didn't want go to in any further. We were walking further and further away from our valuables and I didn't want to get out of sight of our stuff. So I walked out and took a few steps towards our stuff and he just told me to sit here and soak up the scenery with him. So then we sat in the sand and I felt the urge to ouch his pocket. (I have nooo idea why!!) and I felt something. I asked him what it was and he immediately said, "Quarters." And well it WAS quarters!! We had to get change for the meter on the street, haha!! So anyways, as I'm playing in the sand with my finger, I thought he was drawing something in the sand on the right side of him when all the sudden he just turns to me and has a ring in his hands and pops the question! Of course I said yes!!
He said he was planning on playing in the water with me and saying, "Oh look at this shell I found.." Then turn to show me the ring. But he just got too nervous and didn't connect that he could do it later. Then his nerves really got to him and he switched to plan B. Haha. But it was perfect anyways, and I was glowing!!
I called my Mom right away and she screamed on the phone (she was at work). And I called my BFF shared the good news. We walked back to our belongings and I was just glowing the whole day and of course the whole trip. When we got back home to my Auntie's house at about midnight we sat in the room talking to her and I told her the good news and she jumped outta bed to turn on a brighter light to stare at my new ring. To top it off at the Luau we went to they even made an announcement of the newly engaged couple and had a dance for us in front of thousands of people.
When we got home we changed the ring because he gave me a "safe" ring, something he could just propose with so he could have a ring to give me. It took months and months but finally I was able to find the perfect ring made for me!! It's a beauty!!
Like all couples, we fight. But what makes us strong is we talk about things after the storm is calm. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. We are still madly in love with each other like the first day I saw him in the pool. I still get the butterflies fluttering in my stomach. He's so supportive and my best friend along side my Mom who I can tell everything and anything to. In the past 4+ years he's been there throughout so many milestones. I feel like I've grown into the woman I am with him standing beside me the whole way. He's been there as I celebrated my 18th birthday, my high school graduation, me choosing my college, me moving, our engagement, and my 21st birthday, and soon our transferring and purchase of a new home. I am so excited for what our future holds and am so blessed to have found the love of my life already. Some people go on forever searching and never find the soul mates, and I'm so lucky to have met him when I was merely 17 years old. He's my high school sweet heart. I love him and so lucky to become his wife. http://forum.purseblog.com/images/smilies2/love.gif
Thanks for letting me share everyone!!
