It was the day she graduated with her masters degree from UCLA. I had the ring in my pocket the whole day, man it was burning a hole in my pants. I was a wreck all day from being so nervous.

Now mind you, we had been together 6 years and I had known her for 10 so I was 100% sure she was going to say yes but I was still nervous because I wanted everything to go smoothly that day.

Then we get back to my car after her ceremony and someone had crashed into it while it was parked. Needless to say I was hot!!! I make a police report and call the insurance company and the whole day was taken up by this.

So we go to dinner which is where I had planned to do it and luckily the restaurant manager was able to take care of everything with little guidance from me. I managed to sneak away and tell him to bring me two fortune cookies, which I brought, after dinner and before desert. She unknowingly cracks open one of the cookie and the fortune said "Will you marry me?" The look on her face was absolutely priceless, she looks at it, looks at me, looks back at it. Then I break out the ring and get on a knee and ask her, so will you marry me?? And of course she said yes.

I think the whole car crash thing earlier in the day helped throw her off because she said she didn't see it coming.

my girl would cry like a baby if i broke somethin like that out

She did cry. It was beautiful. The look on her face went from surprised, to shocked, to "are you serious" to tears all in the matter of about 2 seconds. Then when I got down on one knee and broke out the ring it was an instant yes. I barely got out the words and she was coming over the top of me saying yes. Then I had a hotel suite that night all decked out with rose petals and champagne. She didn't know about that either. As soon as we got in there she grabbed my phone and hers and took out the batteries, it was the best night of my life so far. We're getting married in August in Lake Tahoe.

Awww, that was so romantic. I wish you and your fiancee all the best. Same to you, LazyJ. Good luck!

Seriously.....Think of why you are getting married. Love, security, because ppl say its the "right thing to do", love again, because she wants to.
Why not just be together, live together, love together. All this can be done without marriage.

Taxes.
