personal story I proposed to my boyfriend, he said YES! 🥂

I’m (47F) married to my amazing husband (46M) for 18 years next month. I’ve been dating my incredible boyfriend (39M) for 1 year next month. The two of them get along famously. Loads of respect and kindness and genuine friendship.

I took my boyfriend on a bit of a surprise trip. He didn’t know where we were going, just what to pack. As we took an after dinner stroll on the beach, I asked him and his boys to be part of my forever family, with a ring and custom box.

He said YES!

I’m over the moon and can’t stop smiling. We plan to have a commitment ceremony at some point, pick new rings together, and eventually all live together. I’m in politics and he has little kids in a different school district, so we have some logistics to figure out, but I’m thrilled.

We have such an amazing relationship. After being poly for 12 years, I found what I’m looking for!
