proposing to my girlfriend tonight!

  • If any of y'all of ever heard of Chattanooga you've probably heard of the Southern Belle. Its a cruise like boat that serves dinner and rides up and down the river. They had a special Valentines Dinner on the river and was pretty chill and romantic. After dinner and dessert, I downed 3 glasses of champaigne and grabbed her and took up the upper balcony. I asked a guy smoking a cigarette up there if he could take our picture. He was cool and took an couple pics. As he was leaving, I asked if he could take one more, he said OK. So my GF sets up for another picture, turns around and I got down on one knee and proposed. Totally surprised her, she cried tears of joy (I hope) and finally said yes. It was awesome! And were real excited.

    I'll try and post some pics here when I get off work!

    It's what we do.

    We're going to a nice dinner tomorrow night. Married 15 years and together 20. I hope she doesn't realize how bad she's slumming. biggrin

    I understand - I out-kicked my coverage over 23 years ago and she, despite being beautiful & smart, somehow hasn't figured it out yet.

  • She better cook you breakfast.

    Hope you asked her dad. mrt

  • I've been dating my girlfriend for almost 3 years now and she still hasn't popped the question. I'm beginning to think she's just using me for sex.

    Damn, I'm a lucky guy...
