Joe and I met on Facebook Dating in September 2022. Its become a fun quirk in our story that Joe likes to claim we met on Facebook Marketplace. We quickly became close, and after our initial meeting, it was clear we wanted to continue seeing each other. By the second date, I knew this was the man that I was going to marry.
Fast forward to August 2023, Joe and I decided to go fishing at a small park near my parents house, but there were other people fishing at the dock. Joe suggested we take a walk to wait for them to leave, which I happily agreed to since I cherish our time alone. During our walk, I kept my head down looking for agates. Joe proposed a friendly competition to who could find the best one.
About five minutes into our hunt, Joe called out from behind me, claiming hed found the best agate. I turned around, and to my surprise, he was on one knee, holding a ring. As some of you might know, the stone is a moss agate. He definitely found the best one!
