Me and dh started going out when I was 17 he was 16 after 3 weeks we were lying on the floor together and he did the whole speech on how he loves me and I'm his queen and he wants to love me forever and me be his wife I got the ring a couple months later which I don't have anymore he also called my dad at work and asked for my hand in marriage and he told him to come back when he was older lol
We had been talking about getting engaged and we went and found a ring that DF layby'd. On Dec 5th 2007 I didn't realise he had gone to get the ring out. He got all the kids together and then on one knee proposed. All the kids were smiling and laughing and it was a lovely, warm moment. Now we just have to stop having more kids so we can get married lol.
I'm loving these stories.
Mine, well the first time Dh and I were laying in bed (late nov, early dec) and we were talking about how long we had been together and how time flys. During this I said to him, 'so how much longer do think it will be before you make me an honest woman?' So right there and then he asks. (turns out same day as DD1 was conceived)
Then what we call the real time. We were moving, so the house was empty besides the last few things, but we were still staying there. I came home from work, fly in the driveway, race through the house busting to pee (6mnths preggers and needing to pee badly). Dh stops me mid way through the house, he said he needed to talk to me about something, so I was standing there doing the needing to pee dance, you know the sway, the legs crossed, constantly jiggling about.
But then he got down on one knee, said a whole heap of stuff that I honestly cannot remember, I was too busy needing to pee, and then there were tears, etc....
I dont remember the words he said, but I sure do remember how good that pee was! =D
The most romantic one I have heard of though, my best friend and her Dp, went overseas last year. Major milestone for him who is scared of travelling (its actually a phobia for him). They were in scotland for christmas. they went for a walk on christmas eve up on a hill that looked over the town, whilst it was snowing he got down on one knee and asked.
I love how different all our stories are. it makes me smile
My DH was going to propose to me on our 2 year anniversary, but decided to bring it forward because I was just about to commence an intensive stint in corporate law studies - so he brought it forward to the weekend before.
We had just signed a contract to buy a new car and he suggested that we celebrate by having dinner at our favourite restaurant, Toscanis, that was just down the road from his parents place.
It was purely simple and sweet - just like my DH - very real and honest. He said he had never loved anyone as much as he loved me, and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. For the first time in my life, I was speechless. He then offered me a ring belonging to his mother and 25 years old.. a beautiful brilliant cut diamond 18ct yellow and white gold ring. Perfectly sized... he's a sneaky bugger and he plans these things well. He had also asked my Dad's permission (who lives in Perth) a few months earlier - my dad absolutely adores him.
My DH is a very private person - so it was very him and I love that :-)
