Disbride to be???

[luv4mylittleones]

My name is Diane and I'm new to the boards. I'm a divorced mom of 3 who has been dating the most wonderful man for the bast year and a half. My boyfriend and I have recently been talking more seriously about getting married and my spiny senses are telling me that he might propose tonight. He has been treating me like royalty today and has planned a wonderful night out for the two us. This is extra special because we haven't gone out without the kids in months and also, recently, a series of tragic events have taken place in our lives. I'm very excited about our date and pray that he pops the question...nothing could bring my spirits higher than that right now. I secretly have been planning a disney wedding and honeymoon in my head. I picked May of next year for the WP so he better get moving on his part so I can book this thing....hahahaha! Wish me luck tonight!!

Well.....last night started out wonderfully but ended up quite a mess! Let me start at the beginning...

I made SO wait in the living room until I was ready, I didn't want him to see me until I was completely ready. He obliged and waited patiently for me to get ready. About an hour later I step out of the room and his jaw hit the floor! It was the best reaction I could've hoped for. He gushed over how beautiful I looked (and he looked amazing as well!) then we hugged, kissed, and snapped some photos.


After taking a few pictures we went to the Melting Pot for dinner. It was incredibly romantic and SO had already had them set the table with a rose and champagne (we got to keep the rose and glasses!!). I was floored that he could be so thoughful!


3 courses, 2 bottles of champagne, and a baileys & coffee later, the dinner was over and we couldn't have had a more wonderful time. Unfortunately, however, he still hadn't popped the question. I was waiting on the edge of my seat all night...nothing! We left the restaurant and I suddenly got quiet. As we drove home my eyes welled with tears and I tried to fight back my dissapointment. SO kept asing me what was wrong and of course I kept saying, "Nothing." When we got home he asked me if I was going to take a shower and I said no because I had just straightened my hair. Then I laid down in the bed and really started to cry. He asked again whay I was crying and I blurted out, "why don't you want to marry me!!!???" Then I ran into the bathroom. I expected him to comfort me but he didn't. When I came out of the bedroom he wasn't even in the room. I thought I had completely blown it and got back in the bed and began to cry uncontollably. (Can we say overreaction???) Finally he came back in the room and I started yelling about how I was tired of waiting and I thought tonight was the the night and how I didn't even want him to ask anymore. (I'm such an idiot!) Then he says, "I guess I won't give you this then." And snaps a ring box shut that was sitting on my nightstand the whole time!!!! Had I not been such a selfish spoiled brat I would've seen it earlier and this mess would never have happened. His original plan was ruined when I didn't shower because he wanted to write "Will you marry me?" in the steam on the mirror and be waiting for me outside the bathroom when I got out...oops! After that we sat down and talked and just when it got to the point where I thought he might forgive me and ask....my 6year old woke up vomiting! What else was going to happen??? lol! We got him cleaned up and came back to the room. Finally, He went into a long monolgue about how much I mean to him and how he could never be with anyone else. He apologized for taking so long and admitted that he had just been nervous. He then opened the box and asked me to be his bride!!! Of course I said YES!!!!!


I made such a mess of things but I'm so grateful that he asked anyway. I've never been happier and look forward to posting lots of updates on our upcoming disney wedding!!! (official date yet to be determined)

I can't wait to get to know all of you better...and thanks for reading!!!!

***Grrr...was going to post pic but my post count is too low...perhaps later!!

Congrats!!

 

[imnotaprincess]

Congratulations! Sounds like the nerves and anxiousness got to the both of you!

It's so funny - I wish I could almost put myself into the DF shoes when they are wanting to pop the big question. Looking back to the night of my proposal, which was only two weeks ago, he was SO nervous the entire night! I have to wonder why - there was NO way I was going to say no! He wanted to do it in Disney but wasn't sure if we were going or not and couldn't stand the wait - he was too nervous and wanted to enjoy vacation!

Anyway - Congrats! Can't wait to hear more...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

I guess now you are officially "one of us" and I hope you keep us posted with your planning details!

 

[Imagoofy1]

Congrats ---

 

[shaun&miranda]

Congratulations Diane!

I'm sorry your dream proposal didn't quite happen! When my DF proposed to me, it was midnight and I was really tired, and he told me he wanted to take a picture of me... I was really grumpy and started to argue when he got down on one knee and I shut up pretty quick

Now it's part of our happiest memories of that night that I got all grumpy - we see the humour in it, and I am sure in years to come you will look back on your engagement night and see all the positives and the humour of it, and it will make it all the more special

Good luck with your planning, I hope he's on board with the idea of a disney wedding!

Thank you guys so much!! We told the family last night and they were over the moon! His mom has already entered planning mode, haha! It all seems so surreal still.
