Today I received proposal number eight. Yes, I have been proposed to eight times. And no, I am not going to name drop on in this ever so public arena... I am a lady! And a lady never does atrocious things such as slander a person's name!
So there I was, sitting safely behind my desk... at least I thought it was safe. A brother and sister come in because they need to collect something from my boss. Of course I was being polite, making small talk, while also inputting data into my computer. I guess I'm pretty good at customer service because the guy was like: "so, lets get married." Obviously I was taken aback... I mean, it's happened to me once before (an office proposal by a complete stranger), but you are never really prepared for that type of thing. Anyways, I politely declined his proposal.
I thought number seven was for real... didn't quite work out. But that came while he and I were studying together (I thought it was sweet at the time).
Six was at my old job at MiraCosta College. Some random guy came in for help and before he was about to leave he said: "Excuse me miss... but would you please marry me." He was completely serious... it was awkward! All I could say was: "No thank you."
Five was a friend of mine. Funny / sweet offer. He had always liked me.
Four was a good friend of mine. Not actually wanting to marry me... more if I was ever in a bind, he would do that to help me. Very sweet of him, but I would never do that.
Three, Two, and one were all ex-boyfriends... I think the lack of marriage certificate speaks for all three proposals.
