📖 Print edition. This book contains 250 anecdotes about families, friends, couples, pets, etc., including this one: Like heterosexual couples, gay couples have stories about how they got engaged. In 2004, on New Year's Eve, Amber and Carol were playing Trivial Pursuit with two friends. When the clock struck midnight, Carol knelt and tried to propose-she tried because in the middle of the proposal, Amber yelled, "You're doing it now? It's happening now?" Yes, it was happening, and yes, Amber said yes. Today, Amber and Carol share the last name of Dennis after getting married on July 4, 2006.
