PDA

View Full Version : Not quite the most romantic proposal...actually, kind of humorous...

Charlie asked me to have dinner with him at TGIFridays. I figured that it was just a normal date, because of the informality of the restaurant, so I dressed normally, in a tank top and pair of nice jeans. Now, before I continue with the story, let me tell you that I am not a small girl....fairly top heavy, in fact, so a tank top is...revealing, to say the least.:o

We were sitting down, and looking at the menus, when he told me I could order whatever I wanted. Okay...no problem...now I had the entire menu to choose from, and an empty stomach to guide me...lol. But I digress. While I was choosing my meal, the waiter who was serving us, kept coming over, asking if we were ready. Understandable, yes, but, then he kept staying longer and longer, talking to us, as if he knew us. Actually, he basically ignored Charlie and talked to MY BREASTS. :mad:

We ordered our drinks, and I could tell Charlie was stressing something terrible, so I try to calm him down. He kept saying "you don't understand...you don't understand". He was visibly upset at the man's behavior, and I'm sitting here thinking he's just ready to punch him.

We finally decide on what food to order, and the guy resumes his stare at my chest, until my man gives him a look that screamed, "leave or die(:eek: )". As he was leaving, I turned to him and asked him why he was more upset than usual(normally he just tells someone off, and we go about our business). He kept avoiding my eyes. :confused: Damn if I didn't start thinking he was going to break up with me...

And then he grabbed my hands, and looked me in the eyes. Again, I feared the worst. He squeezed my hands, one by one, and ran his thumb up and down my ring finger(didn't realize that until later). He reached into his pocket and pulled out two rings, one a gold, diamond and amethyst ring(amethyst is my birthstone), the other a pewter band that reads "Real Love is Forever" and slid them on my finger. At this point I'm bawling my eyes out.

In true "Charlie" fashion, he goes..."you know what I want, my question is, do you want the same?" I barely got to say yes, when the moron with the tit obsession comes back with our food. Before I even gave him the opportunity to look down my chest again, I put my left hand in front of his line of sight. He saw it, and bolted...leaving me and Charlie laughing hysterically. :p

Needless to say, we still look back and laugh at the whole incident. I've asked him why he just didn't wait until a better moment(or at least one with less intrusions), and he said, "any other time wouldn't have been right in my own heart.":D

See, even imperfect proposals can bring sweet memories.

Very sweet!! Proposals don't have to be perfect to be great. Trust me, me DH proposed in the garage :) I was so caught up in the moment, I had no idea where we were, so it didn't matter.

Very funny. I know how you feel (top heavy) I am usually the one to either embarass the more moron that feels the need to stare or makes a comment to them instead of waiting for them to realize that it is getting annoying. My usual comment is my face is up here, they can't speak so you will not be able to carry on much of a conversation with them.
