Proposal

I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years 4 months now. Ups and downs and overcome many obstacles. We only got to be together when he finishes his sea time for couple of months. It was hard for us. He always worried that I would leave him because it was a long distant relationship but I stayed strong. We grew closer every day all though we were miles apart. We rang every once a week when the ship arrives at Japan or Lumut Port. We keep in touch through online when the ship has got a good wireless connection. When he comes home I would stay with him and we would just hold each other for ages.

He rang me one night from the ship and we were just talking about our day and how much we missed each other when he aked me if I would marry him. He said, "Me mau kawin sama you. Me mau sama you." "Kawin ani bukan kan main2", i replied. "I am ready syg", then he turned serious. I thought he was just joking. so i told him "Yes, I'd marry you". I know it was not a dinner and a diamond ring like those romantic proposal.

I am the happiest person on earth. I love him so much.
