My husband swears he proposed to me 3 times before I finally said yes. I say "swears" because we differ on a couple of things. I remember the first so called proposal. I had just graduated from college and was living in MN (he was in ATL). We were doing one of those "I miss you/I love you" kinda conversations and he said something like "We should get married." I was like "Yeah right" certainly not thinking that he was serious, and even if he was, was not going to have no telephone proposal!
He thanks God now that I did take him up on his offer because neither one of us was ready. THe 2nd proposal that I remember was another time we were separated. He was in Switzerland working and I was in ATL. Again, telephone proposal was not going to work so I said "Ask me when you get back." Buster decided to make me wait awhile before he asked again (in person!). I said yes that time!
Bottom line, I knew and he knew that we should be together, but we not in a place emotionally to make the commitment to a real marriage. I thank God that we did not get married the first time he asked. I'm almost sure we would be divorced now if we had.
