Default well she said yes. (some what model A related)

Awhile back some may remember my post about a lady friend that always felt bad when I would do nice things for her, like work on her model A, do repairs around her house, bring her flowers, pay for her dinner, and that I was always telling her that I loved her and she said she has never had anyone be so kind to her. Some said I should ease up and I thought about it, but that's not me. I kept being myself and today I was at her house working on her model A and I called her into the garage telling her she needed to step on the brake petal for me. When she got into the car I bent down on one knee and asked her to be my wife and presented her with a ring. She said yes.

Congratulations, But why did you ask her to marry you if she was already letting you work on her car?

So, she didn't hit the brakes after all, like you asked her to do!

Congratulations!
