“Terry and I met through work in 2010. Mind you, due to the awkward work situation we had to keep our relationship secret for six months! Normally…ALARM BELLS… but there was just something about this guy!
Six months later my father died of a heart attack. Through this horrible time (and 20 kilograms gained) Terry was my absolute rock. Two years later Terry proposed on his 30th birthday. We were travelling home from his party and we stopped at our usual truck stop for Terry to um… relieve his bladder.
But I was wrong…. Instead he opened my car door, kneeled down and asked me to marry him while presenting my mother’s engagement ring. This ring was given by my father in 1987 and had previously been my grandmother’s ring.
Terry asked me if I wished for something more romantic, but to me it was perfect!”
