We met in college our senior year and lived across from each other in our apartment complex. One night Kyle and his friends had the bright idea of throwing rotten fruit off their balcony, over their building into the parking lot. Of course Kyle had to show them how it’s done and hurled an avocado over his roof and across the lot, smashing right against my front door. Kyle of course denied it was him. Lo and behold he confessed 6 months later because it was “eating him alive.” This led to us spending lots of late nights together, taking turns doing our homework, having our first official date at Moe's, and eventually with the help of one of my best friends, Nina, Kyle finally had the courage to ask me out the last night of our spring semester.

Kyle used the excuse we were going “wine tasting” and to dress warm because there would be outdoor games. However, none of this was true, besides the dress warm part. Kyle pulled off the ultimate proposal and then we went on a celebratory sleigh ride with champagne. Everyone at our “wine tasting” was in on the act and staged the perfect spot for the proposal.
