My then-boyfriend decided he would be very creative and suprise me with an indoor Chinese food picnic on his birthday. He had told me not to make any plans for dinner and that he was "taking care of it" – that meant NO COOKING for me. Now that dinner wasn’t going to be a concern, I took it upon myself to make plans with a friend to have drinks to celebrate both my then-boyfriend’s birthday and my friend’s as well. This decision came much to the dismay of my boyfriend, who had other plans. Well, not knowing what was awaiting me, I dragged us out to a local restaurant for drinks and appetizers, completely forgetting about the picnic my boyfriend had prepared. After about 3 hours later, we came back to his apartment, not having any room for Chinese food, squashing the whole picnic idea. Well, he INSISTED that I open my fortune cookie anyways and in it was a fortune saying, "I will love you forever" and out fell a beautiful diamond ring! Despite the nig!
ht not going according to plan the way he’d hoped, he did manage to end the night on a wonderful note – a proposal to which I eagerly (and tearfully apologetic) said, "YES"!!!
