The proposal. Updated, page 3. 11/3/08
Ok here is the scoop on how I will go about doing it:
Today I met up with her did a photoshoot with her
but the key thing was I had her best friend in the background hold up signs (each sign had a different letter)
so each picture I took, had a different letter, all together I had 15 pictures which spelled out "Will you marry me?"
On Nov 1st I will lead her over to my hotel where I will have candles lit prior to our arrival and there I will ask her to let herself into the room and close her eyes once taking 3 paces in, upon then I will wait about 1-2 minutes while she holds the suspense of waiting, then I'll let myself in with my own key and go behind her and tell her to keep her eyes closed.
I then give her an orchid (her favorite flower) and lead her to the bed where I ask her to sit down,
Then I have her open her eyes and tell her that I want her to go through the pics we took a few weeks back (today), and of course then she'll notice that in the pics there are different letters, so then it's up to her to piece the 'puzzle' together.
once she is complete I will then get down on one knee and ask her to be my wife.
I figure it's unique and original since she models and she had no clue what I was up to today... Thought of it over and over for the past few weeks..
Nervous yet excited.
well, that's the plan!

Jeff,
Man you move fast. Take your time and make sure you both are compatible. I would honestly live together first in order to work on each others nuances. Nonetheless, I like your proposal methods and it is evident that you have a large amount of class.

Then she moved back school and such.
During the engagement most likely we will again.
And thanks Brian
We are in no rush whatsoever
But then again, she has no idea what I am about to do
I will update this thread after Nov. 1st

There is no norm. Sometimes you just know. A lot of you met my last girlfriend. Beautiful, smart, nice, great catch...but we just never clicked or there was always something that kept pushing us apart. The one Im with now. I would marry her this weekend if she wanted. With Amy I feel like I've known her for years and we just haven't seen each other in a long time. Even Mike said I should marry her and have daughter for his new guy. Its all on how you feel. If you can marry her tomorrow and you both want to...do it.
thanks for the input!Yes we've discussed it before, and yes I know she wants to just as much as I do
I just want her to finish school first this year and such as well as me get my business license this year too.
And a ferrari? There's no room to have the CL guys and my other car buddies all fit in!
And no, she knows im part of many car forums, but she doesn't know on clublexus, she doesn't have interest in much of the technical stuff about cars, she just likes looking at them or modeling for them (mine
).Thanks again guys.

I agree 100%. If I had what i have now with my first marriage things would be so different. I said I would NEVER get remarried and dated and played the market like there was no tomorrow. Had my fun, had a great paying job, all the toys to go along with it and one day she comes around the corner and it was over from there. WHO cares what others say or think you should do!!
I hope you get everything you want and wish you both the best in the future.
OT> Hook me up with some shop time next weekend so we can lift my car and I can look at the exhaust and we can install the springs with a impact gun and a real lift.
lol.
