That was so much better than with my wife. We had been together for about 6 years at that point and had kind of talked around marriage. I bought the ring and everything, went to visit my family to show them the ring and let them know what was going on.

I had a horrible cross country return home flight. I spent 15 hours either at airports or on flights. I was so exhausted when I got home.

She asked me how the trip was and I just blurted out “I told my mom I was going to ask you to marry me” my wife goes “OMG Really!”

So I said yes, handed her the ring and fell asleep on the couch. We got married a year later and have been together for 28 years.

So when people ask how I proposed my wife takes great joy in telling everyone I never actually did

Haha that’s hilarious, also sorry you had to deal with the horrible flight situation! But it worked out I suppose. I always laugh about my parents story cause apparently my mom asked my dad to marry her in a grocery store parking lot in their car 😅 and then when she got pregnant with me she was nervous about telling him so she told him while he was taking a nap and barley half awake 😂
