Well, remember that cheerleader I said I square-danced with a few pages back. Well we've become friends and somewhat have been flirting with each other.

I would ask her out but I can never find a good time to ask. She seems to always be with her friends and never alone.

I'm also horribly scared she'll say no.

Hi everyone...I am new here, so I thought I should share something that is really important to me and will hopefully help you get to know me a bit more: a much abridged version of the story of my engagement :)

It all started 5 years ago when I joined another fan forum for a very different story: C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia. It was right after the first Disney movie came out and I signed up primarily in hopes of staying up-to-date on any potential news for a second (and now third) movie. I made some friends, and one person in particular I got along with real well because he(*) was really into his Catholic faith, as am I. After about a year or so...we were talking one day and I asked him if he was going to be a priest. The answer was not what I expected: "that's kind of impossible..." Turns out this person was not a guy, but a girl! She had been keeping her identity secret, just to be safe. I love telling that part of the story because I thought my future wife was a guy for a year :P

Over the years, we talked and continued our friendship. Sometimes we talked lots...sometimes not much at all. But one year, in August, we decided to embark on a project together to read the entire Bible and Catechism of the Catholic Church in a year. It is amazing how much closer we started to get as we did this. By February, half way through the project, some external forces led us to tell each other how we felt, and it turns out we both really liked each other. We prayed about it, and in late May got into a relationship, despite still not actually being in person with one another.

That August, I went to visit her. In the week I was with her, we completed reading the Bible together (the Catechism took a bit longer...) and had a wonderful time. As a surprise to us both, we also got engaged. Here is how that happened: we went on a day-retreat together the second full day I was with her. During the evening, after the speakers were done, there was just a time with music and songs and prayers. It was during this time that I was sitting reflecting on everything I had heard and learned that day. I begin to get this strong conviction that I knew I was supposed to marry this girl and that God wanted me to ask her then and there. I panicked. No way could I do that...God must be out of His mind! I prayed and prayed...tried to keep me my on other things...but in the end, God got His way. I asked my very-soon-to-be fiancee if we could leave the room and I explained to her what I had been experiencing and asked her to marry me. No ring...no fancy proposal...I felt pretty bad about asking in this way...but she said yes and later has said she wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

I know...I know...this sounds like a crazy story (try living it!) but it really has been wonderful and God has blessed us in many, many ways since then. We've been engaged for over a year and a half and, now that I am graduating college (only to go do more college...but I will be getting paid for that!), we are ready to get married this July. :D

What did he do?

Long story.

He was living with his girlfriend at the time who he has a daughter with. She would bring guys in their house when he wasn't there, and even when he WAS there. So, naturally, he broke up with her. Despite her attempts to get him to take her back, he refused. Her idea of revenge was to get one of her under aged girl friends to tell the police he raped her. He already had a bit of a record, driving with an expired license, and possession of marijuana. So, they just arrested him without question. He got released on house arrest. He had court yesterday. He was fairly confident he hadn't done anything wrong. Turns out he violated his probation by not paying enough for the ankle monitor tracking device fee. He is in for AT LEAST 90 days, or however long it takes to pay it off. Which could easily be up to 8 months. Still a little bit in the dark on the situation, his calls won't go through..

Needless to say, I have been a bit of a wreck. Having someone you see and talk to every single day snatched away from you in an instant, it sucks. But everything will be okay. :-)

Wow, that's quite a story lol. Sometimes you just don't need a ring or planning. My fiance and I met online as well, and our wedding will be exactly one week away in 30 minutes.

I've come to a conclusion

When I have a girl friend I'm happy

When I lose said girl friend or am away from girl friend I'm unhappy

When I don't have a girl friend I'm happy

Seems to me I'm better off not having that sort of deep and meaningful relationship. I'm happy sticking with MistWolf because I can be away from her for extended periods of time without feeling down. We're like smack in the middle between best-friends and girl-friend/boy-friend, psudoromanticisism if you will (And yes I did just make that word up).
