shmj 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2007 Here's my story:Hubby & I were still working in the co where we got to knew each other. As I was in the Customer Care dept, we had to worked very late & most times on public holidays too. abt 2 weeks b4 Xmas, he brought me to Lee Hwa & said he wanted to get me couple rings for Xmas present. Not suspecting anything, I said ok.Aft selecting the rings, he said wanna engrave our initials in the rings. So the Sales Asst said can but need 1-2weeks since now busy period. I said as long as by Xmas eve can collect can liao. So we agreed tt the rings will be ready by Xmas eve...On Xmas eve, I hv to work later than usual (everyone went bk at 12:30pm since 1/2 day.) So already quite grumpy lah. Told hubby to go & collect the rings & wait 4 me at home. Then later he called me at 3pm & said the rings not ready.... I flared up & scolded him. Told him shld hv insist tt the Sales Asst give us the rings since on the receipt already stated the date/time mah.... Then at abt 4pm he called me again to ask what time I can reach home cos we hv dinner appt with a few friends at 6:30pm... fr my work place to his place, I need at least 1 hr leh... I hate to be rushed by other ppl one... so naturally I got more pissed lah... When I reach home, it was already 5:30pm liao... so rush like mad. I was very very grumpy by then. When we reached Novena MRT station, I pointed to the direction tt we need to walk to Royal Hotel where we are mtg our friends, he said shld be the other direction... ( & points the path on the empty field behind the mrt station)... I **** pek chek & said whatever lah.... but I still felt the other direction is the correct one in quite a harsh tone...Then while walking on tt path, he kept looking backwards & forwards.... suddenly he sidestep me & kneel in front of me with the ring tt he said he din managed to get! Then ask me nervously whether I would want to spend the rest of my life with him.... By then, I was crying liao.... & said yes....As we walked hand-in hand towards Royal Hotel, I suddenly stopped & said, "Way! No flowers leh!" I want to retract my answer liao! !! He quickly said cannot! Will give me a flower surprise on 26th Dec... so I said ok lor...On 26th Dec - he sent a large pot of Holland Roses to my office.... With a note.... U cannot back out now!

korea 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2007 I dun even get any ring or flowers from my Hb...like tat "Qing Qing Cai Cai" married liao...Very lugi man! you're so funny, karen. my hb also didnt propose to me. he just asked me whether we wanted to get marry a not. after i agreed then he went to my house to ask for my mum's permission. i remember that was during CNY. when everything had settled then we went to buy wedding bands. i can say my hb has became more romantic only after we married lor. after married, he started to buy me flowers on special occasions and even bought a diamond ring for me. he's the opposite type. he told me flowers will wither and die after that but the rose inside my diamond (brilliant rose) ring will be forever there with me. so sweet of him.
