After many months of daily emails, meeting her in person, and meeting the family, and a very enjoyable trip altogether, what should I do now ? I have met the person that I want to grow old with - so why not get engaged ? That is what we did towards the end of the my first visit.
She initially wanted to get married in Chongqing right then and there. This was a little fast for me, so I did some research, and it seemed to be more advantageous to get engaged first, and married in the US once she was able to immigrate.
We decided to celebrate this event with a dinner at a nice restaurant, inviting my fiancee's friends and family. We got a tailor to make a traditional Chinese shirt for myself, with my beautiful fiancee in a traditional red dress. I got to meet her two best friends, both who have subsequently also immigrated to the US as well. We shared food and drink with the gathering, and even Jiao Jiao the cat got some leftover fish.
