...
This evening i... officially got engaged to my girlfriend!
There was none of that romantic proposal rubbish though... i kind of half heartedly asked her at the weekend and she said yes, and then we went out and picked a ring earlier in the week, and it was resized for collection today. It wasnt a big expensive one - just a few hundred, but with the promise that i'll get her a propper one when she goes back to work. She likes this one though and says its fine.
We've been together 6.5 years, since we were 19, but im still embarrassed to tell my family. I haven't told any of my friends yet, and probably wont.
...So its now official *Gulp*
