Maria tagged me with this one. To tell you the truth guys, I have no romantic proposal story to share. I don’t even own an engagement ring. My hubby is not a romantic type, and I never complain. In fact I cannot think of him as a romantic lover. If in any case he suddenly becomes one, I am pretty sure I will loose interest on him. Our love story began late 1999, it has begun for me but not for him. I was already so so so into him then and he is so not seeing me. It hurts a lot back then LOL. Then after some months a romance had blossomed between us(or I just assumed). Then it was gone. Would you believe he even told me to move on.. yeah I cried a river then. Fortunately some things happened that led him straight to my arms.. All in all, I wooed him for 7 months.. We were living together then, even though we were not an item yet. In case you might find it wierd, communal living is perfectly normal in UPLB. I even experienced living with 4 or 5 fraternity brothers. We were sleeping side to side with no malice (on cata’s part only LOL). It is just natural (for us) that we live together after formalizing our relationship. Then he left the campus and just months of living away from him, I give up. I go with him in Valenzuela (2001). Marriage and proposal is out of the question. We just knew we are goin to marry, just waiting for the rigth time. We are so assured of ourselves and our relationship. 2002, something happened that made us to decide to marry the next year. February 2003, it was set that our wedding will be on March. I know for some, proposal and wedding is a big big day. It is just not to me. I treasure our wedding day, simply because it is the day that our bond was legalized.. but I have no romantic sentiments for that day. Maybe it is not only my hubby who is not romantic.. maybe it is also me.. LOL.. I don’t even care that we did not spend a sweet and romantic Valentines.. I admit at firts I ask him for things like that but now that we are older together, I just learn to accept that our relationship is more than sweetness. I know we both agree that what we have is a commitment not only base on feelings, but also based on responsibilty.. But if you still insist on how he asked me to marry him or me asked him to marry me.. well here’s what happened: The night of February 1, 2003 (my 21st birthday), he thinks that this is a legal age for girsl to marry. He just told me that I call my mother and tell her to file fro our marriage papers. o ano, kinilig ka ba? LOL

February 23, 2009 at 8:28 amIt's the sacred bonding that is important. You, your partner, your loved ones and witnesses. I cherished my wedding day simply because we only invited the people who made 'Us'/our relationship going. Later on, you can re-marry.

February 23, 2009 at 9:47 pmHi, ate visit here reading your love story. You know what ate. My marriages life is not perfect. No marriages is perfect. Grand or simple wedding is not important. The most important is your relationship after wedding. May God grant you and your hubby to be together forever. He's not very romantic but she loves you more than anything else.I want a simple wedding but my husband wants to in the church. I got married with no family from the Philippines. It's really painful to me. I cried for 6 months. everything is different from cultures, language, weather, food, everything. But i keep praying to God to give me strength to survive too. But i love my family that is why i stay.

February 25, 2009 at 8:55 amthe best i heard so far.. so honest and straightforward..simple and down to earth marriage..well, what happens before that doesnt matter..what is more important is the relationship between both of u..as long as u find each other comforting, that is all that counts..
