We met in math class, my sophomore year of high school . She asked me to help her on her math homework, and in exchange she would drive me home because I didn’t have a car. Then one day, one of my good friends, Cain, told me he heard that she really liked me. He encouraged me to ask her out. I asked her to be my girlfriend on the way home from school one day. We ended up attending the same college, and the rest was history. It’s funny how being good at math helped me find the love of my life.
I would be lying if I didn’t say I thought she was gorgeous the first time I saw her. I also loved how open and honest she was. We would laugh and talk for hours a day, and time would fly when I was with her.
We were together throughout high school and college, and I knew that she was the one for me. Once we graduated from college and I realized I could not live without her, I knew it was time to start planning the proposal.
New York has always been a dream vacation of ours. New York at Christmas time was even better. After 8 years together, I thought it would be the perfect place and time for such a special milestone in our relationship.
I purchased the ring from Lisa and Alle at Beasley’s Jewelry in Lewisville, TX.
