I had waited for my husband for 3 years while he was in service in Vietnam. He got home in November. He did not say anything about asking me to marry him. I loved him, but I wanted to marry and have children, so I decided if he did not ask me to marry him by the 1st of the year I was going to break up with him and find someone who wanted a wife and family. For Christmas that year he bought me a couch and chair for my apartment, I was so heartbroken, but did not let on. We had been together for 7 years total and the thought of separating was breaking my heart, but I knew what I had to do. He was driving a truck for his brother and had to leave out Christmas afternoon. After eating with my family we went by his brothers where there was a house full of people. After going in and saying hello to everyone we were all standing in the family room talking, and he was getting ready to leave, all of a sudden he hands me a box and says, "Here". I look at it, and think surely not to myself, not in front of all these people without even saying a word. His cousin and everyone starts hollering, open it up, open it up. I open it up, and there is a ring. He does not even put it on. Doesn't even say anything. Just looks at me, like he has done what he was suppose to do. Someone says, "give her a kiss, give her a kiss". So he does kiss me,quickly. Then they holler put the ring on, put the ring on. I put the ring on. He grabs his stuff, and leaves in the truck no words nothing. Now isn't that about the most romantic thing you have ever hear of. Oh yes he did ask my dad for my hand, the week before, I found out later. He said "Old Man, I'm taking a trip and want to know if I can take your daughter with me," my dad said "I guess so". We've been married for 37 years guess its worked. Mine was a nightmare I will never forget it. I had waited for my husband for 3 years while he was in service in Vietnam. He got home in November.
