Nairalanders, Bolanle and Segun had their first wedding anniversary yesterday and they were so excited.
With all joy, Bolanle (the beautiful bride/wife) who is full of thanks to God, says the marital journey has been AMAZING, she couldn't have wished for any thing better - aww!
Their love story is gonna thrill you guys...*winks*.
Bolanle and Segun officially met while they were both attending school at Rutgers University in February 2006. While they were both attending Rutgers University, Bolanle was doing work-study at the bookstore and Segun came to buy a textbook. While Bolanle was ringing up his item at the cashiers register, Segun smiled and said “hello”.
They were both shy to start up a conversation but they were drawn to each other already!
They met again but this time, Bolanle was sitting in the hallway in one of Rutgers famous building called “Roberson Hall”, and has God will make it, Segun was strolling the hallway with one of his friends called Olu.
As soon as he saw Bola, he overcame his shyness, walked up to her and said “hello”, and then he started a short conversation and ensured that they exchanged numbers.
As time went by, Bolanle and Segun spoke constantly on the phone, non-stop sometimes till early hours of the following morning talking of sweet nothings...
Because of Segun’s kindness and selflessness, he would give Bolanle frequent rides to and from work because at that time she had no driver’s license or personal car. Aww!
As the friendship grew even stronger, Segun asked Bolanle to be his girl and she said yes.
The Proposal
Throughout the mid to late stages of our relationship, they talked about what they wanted from the relationship and how they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.
Fast forward to August 2011, Segun was secretly preparing to propose to the love of his life.
So on August 1st 2011, they went to a restaurant to have dinner and then to the movies.
"During our dinner date that Segun held my hands and told me I was his princess. We had a great time at the movies and he dropped me off at home. On August 2nd at around 8:40AM, still sleeping I heard a slight knock on my room door and Segun walked in smiling. Still unsure if I was dreaming or not, he walked to my bedside, got down on one knee holding my hand. He started saying how he wanted us to spend the rest of our lives together and other sweet things to me, removed a box from his pocket and opening the box to show the ring, and then he popped the question, of course, I said YES!!" Bolanle excitedly narrated.
