What was your reason for saying "yes"

Awww. My FH and I got engaged 9 months into our relationship. He knew from our first date that he loved me and I knew less than 5 months into dating that I wanted a long and happy life with him. So....a couple weeks before we met or started talking (we’re a bumble couple) he lost his Little brother in a car accident at 20, his mom had been battling stomach cancer for the past couple of years and he was her primary care giver; 5 months into our relationship she passed away. All of this was never a big deal (in a negative way) for me. We spent a lot of time at his Mom’s house or in the area, in case she needed anything and my mom and I actually helped them out. I’m thankful for the time I got with his mom; she was amazing and the joke is that she was training my FH for me since she and I have some similarities. I didn’t think I was going to get married and honestly I didn’t really care if I did; once I met him, our relationship was different then any that I had been in before, and all of the stuff we had gone through, before getting engaged and even now, has just reassured me that he is the person I want to spend forever with.

When FH proposed we had been dating just over 3 years and like poster we had (and always have) our up's and down's together and individually. The reason I said yes and knew he was the one for me was that no matter how low the down he was there and willing to put in the work and effort to work out the problem, even if it wasn't truly his to deal with. We have been through a lot and he has never left my side, that's how I knew to say Yes.

When I met FH in 2013, I just knew. He was going to be someone special in my life. We have 2 daughters together, have been living together for years. Our love continues to grow. We decided it was the right time to get married!!

The fact he's my best friend and my daughter's father. I knew he was the "one" when he didn't run the other way especially when it comes to my son he's (now) 16 years old and is severely Autistic and will forever be at home with us. The fact my FH didn't run for the hills but instead has cared n loved my son like he would his own and is wanting to adopt him so he can be officially his dad.

We have been thru a lot within our relationship it's only has made our relationship stronger.

Plus he deals with my psychotic gemini a** all the time😉😂

I knew early on. We went on vacation 3 months into our relationship, and that is when we both knew we loved each other. After a year, we moved in together, and now, after 7 years, we are officially husband and wife as of 7.20.19. He's kind, hardworking, funny, smart, handsome, we share similar values, and we have discussed our future together at length. We support each other in achieving our goals. I couldn't imagine being with anyone else. I could go on and on lol. We're a partnership. We didn't even have a traditional proposal, we just decided, in talking about our relationship and future, that it was time to take that next step. He did get me a beautiful ring after though lol.

Long story ... sorry 😅. FH and i met in our freshmen year of high school (2007) we had 6 out of 8 classes together so we felt like oh what a coincidence? We became very close friends and i made the first move! A year and a month later we both found out we were expecting our first child. We went through so much and we were just 16. It made us stronger and stronger. He purposed to me once on Valentine’s Day while i was pregnant and i said yes but we were too young so we decided to wait til we were ready. 3 years later FH purposed again. I of course said yes then i found out again we were expecting ... our second blessing. We were in college and already have a 3 year old so we put the wedding in back of our heads with all the craziness. Up until April/May of this year he brought up marriage. Our children are older we are steady with the jobs we have and we have a house to live in. (He’s not purposing again just Incase 😂😂😂 ) At this point our children are 10 and a half and 6 and a half. 13 years of true love 💕

It took one roadtrip as best friends and a kiss in the rain for me to say yes in that moment lol. But only a whopping 2 years later, he had the most fantastic proposal with everything right (except my nails weren't did so that was one thing I was like "really?" about because my fingers are UGLY) I saw that man grow in two years, he works so dang hard every single day and that's who I want by my side through all the ups and downs. I'm so madly in love with this man, how could I not just cry and say yes. He's the hippy man of my dreams.
