The Heart of the Matter
When I was dating my husband, I loved everything about him; but I often wished he were more romantic.
While I could depend on him to fix my sink, buy useful gifts for my birthday, and keep my car running, I felt that sometimes a girl just needs a romantic gesture.
But any doubts I had about his feelings were put to rest the night he proposed. Not only did he actually get down on his knees and ask me to marry him, he showed me two little heart tattoos on his shoulder - with our names underneath.
I knew then that I wanted our relationship to be as permanent as those two hearts.
