We met on an online dating site. We begin corresponding through the site on June 4th, 2010 and then through personal emails on June 6th which lasted for about 4 days until June 10th. Thats the day is we met each other face to face and had our first impromptu afternoon date with a matinee movie, "Just Wright", then had lunch.
Sometimes we still both reread all of the emails we exchanged at the beginning of our relationship. Its quite fun to reminisce about all the things we talked about. One of the best realizations we both confirm is that we are both the same people today, as we were back then. Who we said we were is who we still are... well not exactly. We are actually better since we have found each other.
Things we were looking for in our mates...and found in each other, God-centered lives, lots of laughter with each other and at each other (when appropriate), the ability to communicate effectively with each other, more laughter, respect of self, each other and others, kindness and a drive to walk in our destinys and be each others biggest fans.
Our Engagement-
Flo proposed on Monday April 4th on the sidewalk of 3rd avenue. We were actually taking "pre" engagement photos which turned into "engagement" photos. YAY!!!
We celebrated the day by going to the same restaurant we went to on our "official boyfriend/girlfriend" date, at Wing Lei inside of The Wynn. The hostess actually sat us at the same table we sat at the first time without evening knowing it.
And now here we are; and wedding plans are in full swing. |
