We had been dating for about three weeks now when I had a realization... I wanted to be with her until my last breath but I wasn't exactly sure how to ask. So I thought about it until after we had our night alone. That's when I realized what I had to say so the next Friday I asked her in a message I felt like such a coward but it was all I could do at the time. I felt so nervous as the seconds ticked away but they felt like hours as I saw her reply yes. My heart nearly exploded as I read her answer that day I changed forever into a happier more dedicated man.
