SHE SAID YES!!!!
Without going into a long-winded 500 page novel, I proposed to her on New Year's Day and she said yes, no official date yet set but we are looking at a few dates in either June/July which we will firm up by the end of the month.
Like I said before, I've dated plenty of women but something about this one has been different from the start, I always hated the saying "once you know, you know" but I understand it now and I could not be happier.
Thank You all for pushing me (more like kicking me in the nuts) to finally man up and make the move I had to make. I was beating around the bush and playing games for almost 2 years and you guys gave me the kick I needed to get things done. Thank You!!!
I'm going to stay on here in case I can pass some of my knowledge down to those stuck where I was stuck for a very long time.

There’s a lot of reading and I’m tired but...
I hope it goes well for you!

Freeze outs are completely idiotic.

Agreed.
I've never seen the point in freezeouts, if they're unsure or less interested they aren't going to care. If they're interested, they may contact you anyway but you aren't winning anything. With this kind of thing, the emphasis is on striking while the iron is hot. Possibly makes reconnecting a bit awkward when it doesn't have to be.
I've never been in a relationship beyond casual OP, but you've only been going out with this girl seven months. You've possibly had friends show a different side to themselves in around the same period - what makes you think this will work?

I’ve known her for nearly 3 years prior and have been into her for nearly 2 years and spent a lot of time with her during those years. I’ve had multiple long term relationships and I have never had this kind of relationship. I’m at a point in my life where I know exactly what I want and she satisfies more of my expectations than any other person I have ever dated/met.

Fair enough if you've known her a few years, hopefully it goes well

Help me understand what you mean when you say "once you know you know"? You knew her for a year and then you began to be into her. Two years after that, you kind of didn't act on anything. A couple of months ago, you began a relationship and it made you nervous when she brought up marriage. Now you're engaged. At what point did you know? Oh...and congratulations.

To answer your question, when did i know? I knew there was something about her the day I first met her 3 years ago or so. During work, our connection became so strong that everyone constantly asked if theres something going on between us. Whenever we were out together years ago, strangers (mostly females) would tell us there was a super positive energy between us, and this has happened on a number of occasions...never had these comments before Finally when I made a move and we started dating officially it became even clearer, I have never had this type of communication with anyone ever before. Sexually, even though shes not experienced, it is the best I have ever had, its perfect. We have now been together in LA for a work thing (essentially living together) and it has been perfection in every way. But when did I know? Actually... In November, she took 4 hour flight back home to see her parents....at the exact time she was in the air, I had a traumatic experience. Luckily everyone involved is ok....upon landing she called me to say she had a bad feeling about something so I told her about the incident and what does she do? Having just landed, she does not leave the airport, jumps on another plane and comes back to me, canceling her trip to see her parents. I did not ask her to, but I cannot imagine anyone else doing that. I might sound like a child saying this, but, She's a keeper 100%.
