In his own words: I love my job, but it keeps me on the road a lot and the hours can be long. My iPhone is my lifeline -- without it, I wouldn't be able to manage my work schedule and service calls. And yeah, I love the Fox Sports App, too. I feel like it's time to take the next step in my relationship with Joanne, but I'm not sure how to start planning for it.
29 Chicago, IL Single, dating Joanne for 3 years None Mechanical Engineer $65,000 B.A., M.S. Mechanical Engineering
Alfred’s Story • I’ve been with Joanne for three years now, and I really think this is it. I want her to know that she is the love of my life, and that I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life without her.
• You’d think that was the hard part, getting to this decision. But now that I know I want to get engaged, I don’t know the first thing about how to do it. I know I have to get an engagement ring, but I don’t know the first thing about them. I don’t have a lot of time in my schedule for learning about them, either.
