Jaci + Rob | Our Story
Tell us how you first met? Rob and I were introduced by a mutual friend in 2008. I was living in Dartmouth at the time and this friend had been trying to get us to meet for months without success, but finally I received a message through Facebook from Rob basically saying that he was told to get in touch with me and if he didn’t he was a fool. We started talking online and decided to meet in person that December. We had decided to make it a double date so it would be less awkward, but one half of the other couple cancelled at the last minute and it was just the 3 of us for the night! That was our first “date” and we have been together ever since.
When did you know he/she was the one? I knew Rob was “the one” within days of talking to him. Since we didn’t live near one another we depended on nightly MSN chat “dates” to get to know each other. I knew right away that I wanted to be with him. I just recently told him that if he had of asked me to run away with him that first night we met in person I would have no questions asked. I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him and that I would.
Tell us about the proposal. We had talked about marriage for a few years on and off, but more so after the birth of Maya. A few weeks before he “proposed” we had been out looking at rings so I knew it was coming, but not sure when. I think he had tried to plan some elaborate proposal but I kept screwing up his plans and we actually got in a fight about it. After a little time had passed we were sitting around the living room one Saturday discussing our plans for the day ie: errands, what to do with the baby etc and he came in with a receipt and told me one of the things we had to do was “pick this up” and he handed me the receipt for the ring. In true Rob fashion we ran EVERY errand we had to BUT getting the ring because he knew that would drive me crazy. We finally picked up the ring and there was no getting on bended knee. I don’t even remember if the words “Will you marry me” were even said. We just knew…well I knew I think he just went along with it LOL
Tell us the one thing you love most about each other. The one thing I love the most about Rob is the way he loves and cares for our daughter. He is a phenomenal father. I love those moments when he doesn’t know I’m watching and I see the look of pure love on his face when he looks at her. It makes my heart melt.
Tell us the one thing he/she does that always makes you laugh. There is not one thing that Rob specifically does to make me laugh. We laugh every day. Even when I’m trying to be mad at him he can make me laugh. That’s one of the reasons I fell in love with him.
