After 3 years of dating the most amazing girl ever, tomorrow is the day!! Here's the game plan...take notes fellas. 🙂

My best friend picks up my GF; takes her to Juut salon/spa for a 30 min. massage. At the end of the massage, she'll get her hair washed and makeup put on. She'll also receive a letter from me. Each letter is on handmade paper with embedded iris petals and leaves. There will be 3 letters; each one containing things I love about her as well as stories of God working things to bring us to this point. I've saved these 3 stories from her for this very day. 🙂 The first letter tells her to go to a coffee shop we frequent. She arrives there, receives an iced chai along with letter #2. Another friend of mine will be in the corner taking pics. Letter #2 instructs her to go to a lake we love to walk around. She arrives there; a friend is there in a suit and tie with a nicely wrapped gift. Inside gift is letter #3 and one of her dresses. Best friend takes her back to her house so she can change and get ready. Letter #3 instructs her to go to this awesome trail through the woods/creek. She arrives there; best friend escorts her part way down the trail. After a small walk, there is a path leading into the woods. She takes the path; tea candles will be lining the path as well as rose petals covering the ground. The path suddenly opens up into an open area under a tree canopy. I'll be there. A friend will be hiding in the woods taking pics and videoing the whole thing! 😀 I'll tell her that I love her; I'll be saying this to her for the first time. Those are words I have reserved for my wife and I FINALLY get to tell her that I love her after all these years! After I propose, we're going out for a romantic dinner at a sweet restaurant. I AM STOKED!!!

Cliff's notes: I'm proposing. Read the story above. 🙂

tell ya the truth, I'd be embarrassed to death. I don't like strangers messin' with me, I'd walk out on the massage/makeup thing. I'd rather have iced latte. gettin' my own dress in a box would be weird. I don't own a summer dress, that'd make it even weirder. I don't want to own a summer dress, so.. stands to reason I wouldn't want to go somewhere and put one on.. rofl. by the time it'd gone on all this long I'd be like get to the point already.. sheesh! but.. that's just me.. I'm just not a very romantic (or for that matter excessively feminine) kind of gal, for my own self.. I don't ever appreciate cut flowers very much.. appreciate the thought, but they're so impractical.. you want to buy me roses? buy me a rose bush, plant it for me.. then I can have flowers whenever I want.. not very big on the whole stereotypic romantic gesture thing, personally.. but I do like a romantic story!

so.. I'm gonna assume he knows his gal well enough to know that she'd like it..

edited because I'm bored.. heh.

YEs. Personally anyways.... that would mean a lot to me if my bf took all that time to work everything out.
Most girls i know are pretty "girlie" when it comes to that kind of stuff.
 
Hopefully he wasn't shot down and now he won't talk to us. 🙁

j/k I know she wouldn't reject you. 😀
 
she must've already taken his pants away from him, ditched his pc, and lined his house with candles, flowers and redecorated the bathroom

poor bastard 🙁

nah, she just turned his PC into a decorative lawn flower pot.
 
It's been a few days folks. The guy was so impressed with himself and needed validation that he posted his plans here so his GF more than likely shot him down in flames and he is too embarassed to fess up.

UPDATE: Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! At ~7:30pm on Saturday, I asked the love of my life to marry me and she said, "I WILL!!" 😀 😀 I'm SO stinkin excited!! If you all knew her, you would be too...she's AMAZING - the most incredible woman I will ever know! Everything went perfectly except for one small thing...my friend who was supposed to be at the coffee shop to deliver letter #2, arrived just behind her! He literally walked in the door right behind her. He called me freaking out, asking me what he should do. I told him it was no big deal, and that he should just hand her the letter, get her the iced chai, then leave. She didn't even know anything was wrong so it worked perfectly! 🙂 Other than that, the evening was absolutely incredible! She loved every minute of it and so did I. The greatest moment, was telling her that I loved her. I am SO thankful that I had reserved those words exclusively for my future wife. I think I've told her I love her ~100 times in the past two days. 🙂 You'll all have to wait until tomorrow for the pics...they're still sitting on her camera.

<---- Still floating in the clouds
