How Justin Proposed to Me

Would you believe the love of my life asked me to marry him on the phone? It went a little something like this:

Amber: Hello?

Justin: (choking and clearing throat) Yeah hi. Ummm. I love you and I can't live without you. Wanna get married?

Amber: Well....yes.

Justin: Great!

This worked for me for a few reasons. One, it was so lame that it was funny. Two, it was unique. And three, it was Justin.

This was probably the beginning of my realization that all the romantic fantasies you build up as a kid, that you see on movies, or imagine you see in real life, are farce. And this fact didn't bother me. Because I knew I would be happy. And you know what? I was right.
