Nikisha and I met for the first time in 2019 in New York City. I was at a party with my guys when I spotted this young lady with her girls. I knew immediately that this woman was special.
When I approached her, she cut the conversation short and told me she had to leave without providing her phone number. So I approached the individual who organized the party to inquire about Nikisha, only to discover that they were Canadians.
Fortunately, my company needed someone for a project in Canada near the end of the year, and as soon as I heard about the project, I told my supervisor I would be interested. As a result, I moved here from Massachusetts in February 2020.
As time passed, I told a friend to connect with a girl here in Canada. Finally, my friend told me she knew a single girl and cautioned me to be serious. So I asked her for photographs, and guess what? It was Nikisha.
My next action was to take Nikisha’s phone number and call her immediately, which I did. For a while, she played hide and seek and “I’m busy” games, until one day I had to give my car to one of my guys who needed it; he dropped me off at work and was supposed to pick me up later, but he got behind schedule.
I texted Nikisha, hoping for the best, asking if she could give me a ride. After all of the hiding and seeking, she eventually accepted. During our ride to my condo, I actually enjoyed the conversation we had.
When we got to my place, I convinced her to stay a bit, so we ordered Hong Shing. Since that free ride to my condo, we have communicated daily. We would stay on the phone for hours and have a really enjoyable vibe.
I then went above and beyond and asked her out on a date, took her to Lavelle, and treated her like a queen. As we started seeing each other regularly and talking about the future, I began to have stronger feelings for her. This is because my plans and hers are so similar. Around November, I began making plans for her birthday, which was supposed to be just the two of us. However, when I decided to propose, I had to adjust my plans and secretly invite everyone I knew. At that time, I knew I had fallen passionately in love with her. On January 23, Nikisha’s birthday, I asked her to marry me, and she said yes.
