I'm newly engaged to my boyfriend of 3 1/2 years. We ironically met on a dating website and hit it off immediately. He works in IT at the University of Southern California. I am a high school English teacher in the Los Angeles area. My students were the first ones to notice I had an engagement ring! Marc proposed to me in my backyard on Veteran's Day 2018 and since then the stress and excitement of the wedding have been keeping us very busy. We are getting married December 14, 2019 in Arcadia, CA.
