General - Are you in love? - View Post

Yup. I remember the first time I ever saw my wife and still love her to this day (been married about 1 1/3 years, been together about 6 1/2 years).

I remember seeing her for the time at a friend apartment. She was dating one of my friends and she happened to be there while a bunch of people came over. I remember thinking she was pretty cute and then found out who she was.

Over the next few years she dated a few other friends actually, though I never really got to know her that well. I didn't really get to know her until she joined the professional engineering frat and we were at some party. I was hammered and made her drink a lot, wasn't a great first impression.

I had liked her and another girl I was pretty sure who I had a chance with (and she's even in pbryo's signature funny enough!) and ultimately decided to ask her out. I noticed she like musicals, she saw I had Jesus Christ Superstar at a party, invited her over to watch it, and the rest is history. We watched it and Chasing Amy and our first date was seeing I forget what movie, going to Target where I bought this awesome stuffed kid Hulk that screams, and we went to my favorite crappy Chinese food restaurant.

About five years later I asked her to marry me. She's a swing dancer and there's a band we love to go see and she dances to. I got the band and about 20-30 of her friends in on it. The band played her favorite song, the friends did a steal dance (she keeps getting passed around as people steal her), the song ended, the final friend spinned her around to me on my knees and I asked her to marry me.

We later got married at the Dallas Museum of Art and had an awesome Super Mario Bros. cake and a Ghostbusters groomscake.
