Heather & Kyler Engagement

[intro]Heather and Kyler were meant to be. Read their darling love story and see how their paths crossed over the years until they found exactly what they were looking for in each other.[/intro]How did you guys meet?

He was best friends with my brother in high school. I knew him when I was like 11! They lost touch and both went on missions, and then reconnected 2 years ago when he became roommates with my brother, and basically part of the family! Also, I went to his missionary homecoming (which was odd because I really didn’t know him and I had a boyfriend, but strangely wanted to go), and we didn’t see each other for almost 2 years after that. How weird would it have been if someone had told us our soul mate was in the room that day. 

First thoughts about one another after you met?

Because we met when I was 11, I just saw him as my brother’s friend…

When they reconnected and became roommates, I had a boyfriend on a mission, but I thought he was super duper attractive and really fun. It was 1 1/2 years later that we started officially dating because I was a stubborn girl. 😉

Who said “I love you” first?

He did. Right after our first kiss. 🙂 After pursuing me for more than a year, going on “friend dates” many times, and finally being told by me that I liked him several weeks earlier, us dating for a couple weeks earlier and then unofficially breaking up, and then somehow being unable to stay away from each other…

Tell us about your first date:

Our first date was almost a year ago when we went on a lunch date to Panda Express. It was super fun, and we laughed a ton, but we weren’t even close to actually dating as a couple. There were about 6 or 7 more months until we could accomplish that. 🙂

Tell us about your first kiss:

He didn’t want to kiss ME because I had turned him down so many times. we went out  one night, and I hinted at it all night, but he didn’t want to because he was very respectful of my feelings. 🙂 We were sitting and talking in his car, and I hinted again. He didn’t kiss me. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and I lunged out of my seat and kissed him. 

For the whole story, read my blog. 🙂

How did he propose?

He took my for an airplane ride over Spanish Fork/Provo area and my parents were down on the ground holding huge signs that said “MARRY ME?” When I saw the signs, he pulled out a ring. Of course I said yes!
