"I'm so happy I found you" -babe
"I would be devastated if something happened to us" -babe
We were talking ish about each other's spending habits again, he said "do you even save money? Lol" biiiiiiitch yes I save money lmao jerk. He said "idc, I was just wondering. That's why I have to save money for both of us" real talk, he makes way more money than I do, so nah, I don't save anywhere near as much money as he does. I do hope to be making as much as, or more than him in a month or 2 tho
My parents finally came to visit me yesterday. Babe was here, so he met them. My dad has an accent, so that was fun to watch him struggle with words lol. My dad had to literally spell out a couple of them
We were talking about both of my parents' families family reunion being labor day weekend. He's never been to any of his family reunions! Wow! And here I thought his family was close lol. I guess just his immediate family is.
Speaking of which, I'll be in Atlanta labor day weekend with friends, so I won't be at either reunion
I found out a day after I bought my plane ticket
I wouldn't have gone to Atlanta if I'd known sooner
His dad invited me to his birthday brunch today. I'd met all of them before, except his bros wife. It was a chill time. His cousin was there, and the conversation went to us and having kids again of course. She said something about 4yrs. He was like oh no. I pretended to not understand lol. But I guessed that that is too long lol.
Later, I asked him to clarify his time line cuz I just wanted to have a sober, day time conversation about this lol. I've told him before that I'd want to wait at least a year into marriage before trying for kids. So 4yrs seemed logical to me. Anyway. His time line really just focused on kids lol he is obsessed with having kids lmao. We were driving. He said something like engaged next summer/fall, "how long do people usually stay engaged for? Idk the next year sometime"
then wait a year, then start trying for kids. That sounded like about 3.5-4yrs to me lmao. Poor thing just wants kids, logic and math be damned
so I said first of all "people can be engaged for however long they want" idiot lol. I said how about engaged next spring, and married the following January, etc? He said yea, that's what I said. It wasn't lol. So we were talking about that. He asks so when are we gonna start looking at houses? Apparently (idk if ive said this to yall yet) he's been looking at houses in the area of moco I said I'd be willing to live in lol you know like on redfin and stuff. I said idk, when are we gonna start looking at rings? Rings come before houses babe lol. We laughed. Detour:
I remember when we first started talking, we got into this debate about guys delaying engagement because "they're not ready". I made the argument that that's bs and the woman should leave and find someone who IS ready, if she is
and he countered with well what if the man has to save up to get a ring? And he sent me screenshots of these $10k-20k rings! I'm like bruhhhh that's ridiculous and no excuse, if she's ready to get married she's not gonna care about a $20k ring
Detour over. He said yea, we should look at rings soon. What were you thinking? $7,8,9k? I said I didn't really care about the price (I don't), I'd have to see them first. I just want to like the way it looks.
Dru Hill is gonna be at the Howard theater next Saturday. I told him I wanted to go and sent him a link to get tickets. I'm excited! He'd already planned for us to be in dc next weekend, so perfect timing.
His family goes on a cruise every 5yrs. Next 1 is the upcoming spring. He told me that his brother asked him was I going?
Like everything hasn't been paid for already lol. His brother is so thirsty lmaoo.
He told me I was spoiled and expensive. And that if he'd met me 3yrs ago when he first moved into his house, he would've told me he couldn't afford me
or that we'd have to split the bills and couldn't go out and stuff and that I'd leave him
at least you know
Pause. Imo, he doesn't spoil me. He does what he's supposed to do
He said he's gonna get me a key to his place. That's cool.
Wow I don't feel like going to work tomorrow. Sigh.
