Life's a happy song
So, I realized that I pretty much just use LJ for the longer or whinier stuff that I don't want on facebook, so I didn't even think to post it here. But just in case this is news to someone,
I'm getting married!
About two weeks ago I proposed to Kayleigh, and we (especially she) have been going nuts preparing for our August wedding. We're thrilled and excited for our life together, away from our current situations and into something happier. She's already got her dress, we've been checking out venues this week, we've got guest lists and registries and all that stuff in the works, and I've just got to ask a few more people to be in the wedding party. Ever since Kayleigh snuck her way into my life several years ago, things have just been getting better and better, and there's no other person I'd want to be with for the rest of my life.
Yes, eight years ago Mistake and I were technically engaged but this is very different. Kayleigh has been on non-stop excitement mode ever since, while Mistake avoided me the next day and told me that if I wanted to date other people before we graduated, that would be fine with her. Kayleigh and I have families that are great with each other and we'll have happy in-laws. My family never got a good vibe from Mistake and her family didn't like me either. Kayleigh and I have been excitedly and publicly announcing our happiness and planning a 6-months-away wedding. Mistake wanted it a secret from everyone at first and kept delaying with bogus excuses reasons we couldn't do something soon after graduation (wants to move back with family, wants a one year break, wants to travel Europe, etc.). Also, Kayleigh is genuine and she always intended for our relationship to be something genuine, not just a connection with someone tolerable that would stop other people's advances so she could just continue secret and deceitful online relationships with others. So this is miles away and miles better than anything I've ever had!
