Valentine Chocolates
My husband proposed to me on Valentine’s Day. He started off by calling my dad at work to ask his permission. My dad responded by asking him if he was sure that I wanted to marry him. (I think my dad meant to ask if I knew that he was planning on proposing.) So my husband was not feeling the greatest, but he decided to go ahead and ask me, all the same.
Then my husband bought a huge heart shaped box of Lindt Chocolates and put the engagement ring box in it. He came over to my house and handed me the box of chocolates. I hate to say it, but I love Lindt Chocolates and so I started stuffing my mouth full of those chocolate truffles as we were taking the elevator up to my apartment. I didn’t even realize that there was an engagement ring box there.
I think he was a bit disappointed that I didn’t say anything (I was pigging out). I finally realized as we were leaving the elevator that there was a velvet ring box in the Lindt Chocolate box. I opened it up, realized what was going on, but I had at least three truffles in my mouth so I couldn’t say anything.
But in my defense, my husband never went down on one knee or officially asked me to marry him. I am not sure that it was the way that he had planned on us getting engaged, but we have been married for two and one half years now, so I suppose it all worked out.
