    On our two year anniversary to the day, Dec 9th 2007. At a Italian Restaurant. I pulled a card out, & a watch to give to him... And then he said he has something for me too. And then he pulled out a little box. He got a little tounge tied, and he asked. And I was like, "Are you sure? Really?" I told him a conversation I had with my father before my father died. My Dad asked me, if I thought Brent would ever asked me. And I said, "I don't know Dad. But, if he ever does, I will definately say yes." And I did say yes. Best yes I've ever said. :smile:

    New Years 2000 - had a big party with friends at a condo on the beach. After midnight we all hugged kissed blah blah - he then asked me to go for a walk on the beach to get some fresh air. Walking walking then he says hey come here for a second - walked back to him, he got down on one knee and asked. I said yes - we hugged and all our friends shot out fireworks from the balcony of the condo.

    It was perfect!

    In Carlsbad Caverns. I told him it was my favorite place and he never forgot. My ring is extremely unique, too. It's a taaffeite stone.

    I met mine on the internet. We dated for 3 years. On our 3 year anniversary he proposed. We went out for a nice steak dinner and then a movie. After that we went to a lake that is right by the steakhouse. This is the same steakhouse we went to every year on our annv. then he got down on this knee and pulled out a Grizzy wintergreen long cut dip can. He had the ring hidden inside. He asked me to marry him and I said yes of course. We got married on our 4 year annv.

    I love my Alabama Hubby!!!!!

    I met my fiance at hiking group meetup that we were both members of. This particular outing was to dollar movies to see James Bond movie. After movie, he asked me if I wanted to go and get something to eat. I started saying no, but then thought that I had no other plans. We had greatest time talking and closed the restaurant down. I did not want to date anyone and told him that because he asked me about my dating approach. I was interested into making friends only.

    We texted each for a week and I immediately recognized that he was not like anyone else I have met. We made best friends spending weekend daytime together and talking every weeknight on the phone, and in about 3 month we realized that we want to marry. We both are in our forties and maturity helps to make better decisions, especially if you are not involved with someone sexually. He proposed to me 6.5 month after we met. He planned to do it on our 7th month meeting anniversary and had quite a plan, but could not wait any longer, excitement took him over. He came to my house in the middle of the week, and got down on his knee and asked me. Had a beautiful ring. Our wedding will be on a day exactly 14 month after we met, in May of 2013.

    He is my best friend and soulmate. I am looking forward to the best years and best times of our life to come.

    We have lots of cats and Thursday is her day to clean the litter box. So I hid the ring in there and when she was cleaning it out, it filtered into the scoop. She screamed and I quickly picked it up and put it on her finger.

    We'd been dating for 3 months. We wanted to spend New Year's weekend in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. At the stroke of midnight of the new milennium, he slipped the ring on my finger as I went in for the kiss!!! We got married 8 months later. That was (obviously) 12 years ago!! :blushing:

    The first time my first husband proposed at a Ruby Tuesday's in a mall. That really should have been a warning sign.

    The second time my current hubby gave me a Christmas card inviting me out of town for a romantic weekend and propose to me as the sun was setting behind the mountains. - its much easier to tell that one when people ask.

    We went for a hike on Colorado National Monument. Standing at a cliff he said "What if I could just jump and fly away, would you fly with me?" And he pulled the ring from his jacket pocket. --I cried a lil bit!

    I love hearing stories about how people got proposed too, and how people met their significant other.

    Mine was pretty simple. We were sitting on the couch and he asked if I was going to be his girl, and I said yes. Then he asked if I loved him, and I said yes. Then he asked if I would be his wife, and I said yes. Then we kissed.
