Because he accidentally forwarded me an email disclosing when he's going to be proposing to me.

And he sent it to you?

0:16.9

Yes.

0:17.4

Well, it was actually a forwarded email and he didn't realize that his original email is attached to the bottom. Oh, you're kidding. No. So why was he forwarding any email to you at all? Well, he has a friend that is currently in Iraq and his daughter before he left, they found out she had a tumor. And it was a mutual friend of ours and he was writing him telling him that she's doing

well and he wanted me to read it just to let me know that she's doing okay. And he didn't realize

that his email, original email, is attached to the forwarded one. And what did the original email say?

0:51.3

The original email. Well, I only read the first line and I want to be clear that I, it took me everything I had to delete it because I didn't want to read anymore. I don't want to know how it's going to happen or when it's going to happen. I just wanted to know. But you did want to know until it was handed to you. No, I've just always wanted to know that it was going to happen. because yeah, we've talked about I want to get married, but in a guy's mind, that might be a year to two years from now. In my mind, it's sooner than that. Like three weeks ago. Yeah, like six months ago. And I just want to make sure we're on the same path. But hasn't he told you that? He's never told.

What did the email say?

It said, I'm looking for early January. And now are you bombed? Yes. And I instant messaged

2:13.6

him and I was like, okay, so I have to be the pretty one and the smart one in this relationship because you just emailed me and told me when you're going to do it. I said, please change it. He's going to have to change it now. Yeah. Unless this is the off the sent email. Yeah. That's what I was thinking. I was thinking he sent it to you on purpose.
