It's kind of funny. I sort of knew it was coming but we first went on a romantic weekend on the Oregon coast and I was kind of hoping he would propose then. When he didn't I was a little upset. But a few months later we traveled to the Netherlands to visit my family and together with my parents we went to Paris for 5 days.
We climbed the Eiffel Tower at sunset and I was walking around taking pictures. I was waiting for him to pop the question and he was waiting for me to stop taking pictures, lol. But then just when I thought it wasn't going to happen, he got down on one knee and proposed . We had a lovely dinner in Montmartre to celebrate and my parents were beaming.
I don't have a story. We were just hanging out, talking about our relationship when the topic of marriage came up. Nothing romantic. No ring. (I got one later) so sometimes I give my DH a hard time when I see a romantic proposal on TV.
And you?? Did your SO do something romantic?
This is us too. Hanging out in the backyard having a glass of vino. Got to pick out my own ring later. We had been together for a little over 3 years at that point and had talked about it several times, we were just waiting for the right time.
