Batman has asked, "So, how much time went by from first date to marriage proposal?" Well, I don't had the exact date because my old journals are still in Florida BUT it was about a month after our first kiss. We were laying on the floor, after heavily making out, when we had the following conversation:
Bear: "So...how long do I have to wait to ask you to marry me?"
Me: "Let's go talk to my Dad."
Yes, I remember it ver batem.
My dress arrived in August (we had no date yet, but my parents already knew it was coming) and he hadn't asked Daddy and I didn't have a ring. BUT it was my dream dress and I knew IT was the one!
We told his folks at the end of September. He spoke to my Dad October 30, 1990. See, Bear had said he was going to talk to Daddy before the end of October. I think he was nervous. I don't know why. My Daddy totally ADORED him! So Daddy made it easy for him. He grabbed them each a beer and invited him outside to chat. LOL!
They sat on the back porch next to the pool. Mom and I were in the house peaking out the window. About an hour later they came in. The deed was done. It was official. I got my ring for Christmas that year and we set a date.
We actually had THREE dates and two sets of wedding invites, but I'll save those stories for next year. :)

Pobble, Thank-you! :)
Batman, it's the proper thing to do. :)
