For those who don't know me I've been with my bf for 3 and a half years and it's been wonderful. Last night out of nowhere he told me he had a gift for me. I'm thinking a cute book, a cheesy movie or the like. He brought me a little blue box. I still didn't clue in. I thought well, he's not going to propse- I'm in school it must just be earings. I opened it and it was a ring, I still thought it must just be a really nice promise ring. He's even kneeling in front of me. He starts telling me quite nervously and fast how I'm perfect, he loves me and can't imagine life without me, will I marry him? I just nod yes. I'm still shocked. FOR REAL? I was barely crying at all!
Anyways I'm very happy, still soaking it in and surprised, very, very surprised!
The ring: nothing matters besides him ensuring the diamond was conflict free and it is. A diamond backed by the Kimberly process and mined, cut and polished in Canada.
I'm a happy little camper

Yeah, you don't see it very often... That guys give engagement ring before talking about it with the girl before. I mean today people engage but it's more like " hmm let's engage ,we get an engagement ring later"

aww i'm so happy for you
great things come to those who wait... and who apparently have VERY thoughtful boyfr.... oh i mean fiancés!
They called us a dead generation,
They told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all clearly alive.

Congratulations, girl! I hope you two will be very happy together. How long do you plan to be engaged? Are you one of those fancy-wedding girls?
Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

Yay! Thats exciting. Congratulations
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

Congrats girl! What a pleasant surprise
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

That is great. I'm glad he actually surprised you because you only get that chance once. I'm also glad to see that you're not trying to put yourselves in the poorhouse just to have an extravagant wedding. Keep it fun and simple and you guys won't be arguing about money for the first few years of marriage like so many couples do.
...one can be sure of nothing until it has already happened...
