Moving In With Alex And Getting Engaged

So, a lot has happened since I last wrote a blog post. I have moved in with Alex and his family and we got engaged.

Because it’s easier for me to get a job where Alex lives and me and Alex really want to live together and can’t afford our own place right now his mum and dad offered for me to move in. I’ve been living here for about 2 weeks now and absolutely loving it. Being with Alex all the time is amazing and I couldn’t be happier. The job front isn’t going amazingly well but it’s all about being patient. I’m sure something will come along soon.

Then yesterday the most amazing thing happened… I GOT ENGAGED!!!

So, here’s the story:

We were at home and Alex said that he wanted to talk to me so he took me upstairs to the place we had our first kiss which ironically was on the corner of his bed, he got down on one knee, told me loved me and wanted to spend the rest of his life with me and he asked me to marry him and I of course said yes, I was so happy that I cried. We then made dinner together which was really cute and lovely. Everyone has mixed feelings about us getting engaged. We’ve only been together for about 6 months and we’re quite young but it feels right and we’re old enough to make our own decisions.

I have always been someone who marches to the beat of their own drum and I will continue to do this, I’m happy, Alex is happy and that’s all that matters.
