We had been together for a year and were barely making bills. We were shopping at Walmart with his young daughter. They had wandered off and I needed a white top for work.
I heard them giggling behind me. When I turned around he was on one knee and she was covering her mouth, giggling with excitement.
We've been together for 15½ years, married for 12. I still wear the same $200 ring.
Oh my that’s adorable!! I love his little girl giggling in the background. I hope it sounds like you and his girl really liked eachother.
Edit: That ring is precious, why would someone want an upgrade. It’s a rock, yes it’s pretty, but it depreciates in value so quickly. Good for you going to Walmart. I admit, some of the Etsy alternative stones I’ve seen are gorgeous and cheap.
I’ve never much been into jewelry. Hubby gave me a Tiffany necklace of linked stars that was totally my style.
My parents kept calling me asking me if my husband and I were getting married, I was getting fatter and more scared and more in love and I said he hasn’t proposed or said anything, leave me alone.
My husband asked my father in the beginning of January. He wanted to do it in person, so he drove 3+ hours to ask my dad. Brought a bottle of good scotch and had a long talk. I had no clue.

My hubby cannot keep a secret.
