This comic basically defines M's and my "romantic moments." One day I will post about some of the moments of sheer epic romance fail we've experienced. We consider this ineptitude (usually on my part, though she has her moments) utterly a part of our relationship and would trade for no sweeping rom-com gesture.
And some link love for an incredible, incredible Etsy jeweler:

That particular pair of rings, of course, is sold, because they are M's and my engagement rings.
This is a belated step on some level because she and I have known for almost two years that we'd be spending the rest of our lives together (with some stalling and floundering on my part because I was 18 and stupid, but even then I pretty much knew). To put that in perspective, Thursday is what I like to call our two-and-a-halfiversary.
But when you find a person who you can be with constantly for months at a time and never be tired of, and when you are apart for a few minutes you then are happy to see them again -- once you cut through insecurities and self-doubt, it doesn't take too long to know.
No date is set. It will be some time before we can legally marry in our new home state. A wedding itself would probably not go well considering various family situations. But we are now what we are calling "enringed" to one another.
And that is good.
Love you, darling.
