We met when a mutual friend invited Matt along to a group bowling outing. We locked eyes and the rest is history. I'm just kidding. We did quickly become friends, he drove me to school everyday and remained adamant that he " did not like me that way". We studied together, talked history ( our favorite pastime) went to concerts and drank way to much coffee. We reconnected after I transferred schools and spent more and more time together. Finally after watching detective pikatue at AMC Woodfield Matt officially asked me to be his girlfriend! And the rest is history...
Christmas had just passed and we had just gotten home from our last holiday party. Matt told me the proposal had been going on for over a week. He let me know he had left clues around the apartment and was surprised that I had not noticed them. He presented me with a ring box and when I opened it, it was empty! We proceeded to play a game of Hot and Cold until I finally found my beautiful antique opal ring. He asked the question and I was giggling so much he couldn't hear my answer at first. I, of course, said yes!
