I got engaged over the weekend.
This may surprise some people, as I am not exactly the most forthcoming with my relationship nor do I tend to have my significant other around a lot during Impact/Band functions. There are reasons for this, and they mostly have to do with me.
I have always been the guy who loves attention, but loves my own time even more. Yes, I am that guy who will ride my motorcycle for hours just so I can go out and think, and be on my own. I know that it is totally cheesy, but that is just the way I am.
I am an extroverted introvert.
Anyway, Christine and I have been together for almost 5 years. We survived the age difference (5 years), we survived her going off to Chicago for college, and, most importantly, we survived my retarded notions about being alone and needing space.
I have gotten to the point where I finally understand what love is, and what love means. And I totally love her.
We do not have a date set as of yet, though it will be at least a year plus. I have my BSN program to contend with, as Christine has her retail seasons. We'll get it figured out.
I talked to Dom (my best man) today, and the plans for the Vegas bachelor party are already in the works. It's going to be a big one.
I am one lucky motherfucker.
