so this summer I went back to my small hometown in China. I met the girl, Ying, who I knew for a year. After one week's dating, she became my girlfriend. Then one week before I left to U.S., we went to MacDonald's,
me: let me tell you something: once I left for America, our relationship won't go up only by phone.
Ying: .. I have not thought about the future yet. Things happen too fast.
me: Having a relationship with you is great fun, but fun is not something you can keep. I want something real with you.
Ying: (after quiet for a moment) what do you want to do with me?
me: I'm thinking about marrying you.
Ying: (murmuring "I'm thinking about marrying you", flushed)
(after a while) "why do want to marry?"
me: (surprised by the question) because I want to be stable, yes I need stability in my life.
(quiet)
Ying: I'm not sure ..
me: (upset, unhappiness, sadness, and disappointment appear on my face) ..
Ying: (surprised by my reaction) ok, I've decided, tomorrow we go to get the marriage certificate. Now you can be happy again!
We did go. But I need a status affidavit from Minnesota state.

Holy cow, Tian! Congratulations! This truly is the summer of love! Is she coming back here with you? More details!
Tian, this is unrelated, by why did you ever leave blogs in the first place?
A lot of things happened in May made me irrational. I appologize, but can not swear it won't happen again..
She hasn't, I hope she will be here in 5 months. We definitely need prayer, thx
5 months...wow. Tian, I sympathize. I'm five days into the three weeks before Sarah gets back, and I can't take it. Prayers are on the way, bro.
Tian!! This is perhaps the greatest proposal story I have ever heard. You should try to sell it to Hollywood!
