Promise that you’ll love me even when you hate me

If you watch Grey’s, and are spoiler free and you haven’t watched the season finale of Season 5. You probably want to walk away now…

For the record, I do think this is a very cute “wedding”. But pardon my shallow shallow knowledge of law or marriage, don’t you need a witness to be legally married? Or Rhimes is telling us, you don’t need to be legally married to be married – that the love of Mer and Der is enough?

Oh well, she can do whatever she wants in her Shondaland. Who am I to say anything? I am only glad that we got more than 20 seconds of merder screen time!

The perfect proposal

No blinding ring, no ridiculously romantic gestures, no flowers, no cakes, no unnecessary audience, no getting-on-one knee or any cliches. This proposal trumps all of the proposals here.

I am not hopeful to get a proposal anywhere close to this because a) I am not a doctor and b) I don’t have a boyfriend who is a doctor either. (But I certainly could imagine some of my friends who have the potential to get a proposal great like this down in the future… say, someone who fights with her boyfriend because of a medical case…!)

“If there is a crisis, you don’t freeze, you move forward, you get the rest of us to move forward. Because you have seen worse, you have survived worse, and you know we will survive too. You say you are all dark and twisty. It’s not a flaw. It’s a strength. It makes you who you are. I am not going to get down on one knee. I am not going to ask a question. I love you Meredith Grey, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

“And I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Seriously, what more do you want?

Seriously.
