I was a sortasnoop - and I feel TERRIBLE!

sarahloveslouis · Jun 19th, 2008, 05:34 PM

Just looking to share a little thing I did..... Bear with my story-telling ability.

So, this morning, as my boyfriend and I (we bought a house together, so we live together) were getting up to get ready for work, he got up before me and headed to the shower. Well, for some reason, he just loves to use the alarm clock function on his cell phone instead of my fancy schmancy alarm.

He forgot to turn off his alarm before heading out of bed, and it went off while he was in the shower. I wasn't *quite* ready to get up, and I crawled over to his side of the bed to grab the phone and shut it up. While trying to find the "off", I managed to hit the button that takes you directly into the photo album!

I was floored when I saw a photo of...............

.......

AN ENGAGEMENT RING! And it was *GORGEOUS*!

So I am having mixed feelings now. Our 2 year anniversary is on Monday, and we are having dinner at an exquisite restaurant. I knew this day would come soon because we talk about it on occasion, but I really didn't expect it this soon. On one hand I am SO SO excited, because I love him to pieces, but on the other I am kicking myself for ruining my own surprise. Regardless, I know in my heart it was 99.9% an accident (me finding out).

BTW - I plan on saying "YES!"

I'm so excited for you! And it was technically an accident, so I wouldn't worry about it. Congrats :]

There are so many worse things you could have found . . . so congrats!

Congratulations. Don't tell him you saw it already. It will spoil it for him and thus for you. Just smile, cry and enjoy your night

Awwww. Thanks!

And there is NO WAY in this world that I will tell him.

His heart and his feelings are more important to me than anything.

illinirdhd · Jun 19th, 2008, 06:18 PM

OK, forget you saw it and be surprised! (Don't tell anyone - friends, your mom, etc!) The second you get it, run home, hop on tPF and tell us all about it!

sarahloveslouis · Jun 19th, 2008, 06:27 PM

I plan on it, Illin! Complete with pictures, for sure!

Thank you all!

Oh that's so cute! From the title of the thread I thought it would be something bad, but this is a good story! Hope you have fun and are you planning to act "surprised"?
