MY SURPRISE PROPOSAL TO RAYVON OWEN
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2018
- A few years ago, I was struggling with mental illness. I was depressed and felt hopeless-especially about love, and relationships. During those times, one of the things that helped me was the music of Demi Lovato. She has remained an important part of my life, which is why it was so perfect that while at her concert last night I:
PROPOSED TO RAYVON OWEN!!!
Rayvon, I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you, and I am beyond thrilled to officially call you my fiancé!
Like I said last night, when I asked you to marry me, I never thought that I would be fully open to love again. Then you came into my life, and I have never been the same. You inspire me and push me to be a better and more open person, and you always show me compassion and patience. I know it’s not always easy being in a relationship like ours-especially when society and even some friends and family have fought to push us apart-but if there’s one thing I know for certain, it is that love is what life is all about, and your love makes my life complete.
You’ve made me a better man and I’ll forever be grateful to you for loving me unconditionally. I know with all of my heart that Tom would be so happy for us, and I thank you for honoring and respecting the fact that he will always be a part of my life.
I have to give a huge thank you to Demi for being a supportive friend and for helping make last night possible. It was one of the greatest moments of my life! I also want to thank you for all that you have done and continue to do for young people, and particularly the LGBT community. Your heart, your voice, and your activism make everyone feel accepted, less alone, more empowered and more hopeful.
Thank you to everyone out there who has supported me, as well as my relationship with Rayvon. Your support through the years has not gone unnoticed and I would not be where I am without all of you.
To anyone out there who struggles with feeling worthy of love, I want to remind you that you are not alone. For the longest time, I doubted that I would ever deserve love. I wondered if my past would keep someone from loving me. But it’s possible. You are worthy of love. There will always be people who will try to keep you down, but there will be far more people out there who will accept you, for all that you are. Never forget who you are, or what you really want in life. Remember that it’s YOUR life, and that anything is possible.

I am so happy for you both. I know Tom is smiling down on you both from Heaven. YES you deserve love. I am so thrilled for you both.
Congratulations Shane I am so glad you found Rayvon... You are an inspiration to all of us no matter if we are gay or straight... You found a light at the end of a dark tunnel after what you went through with losing Tom and after you lost him he had a hand in you finding eternal love and happiness in Rayvon... Congratulations Shane and Rayvon I wish you both all the love and happiness in the world and a wonderful life together... Love you guys!!!
100% agree, wonderful comment. Perhaps you could add subtitles as shame fans didn't respect your proposal a little more but I suspect they were just as happy for you as we all are. Sincere best wishes for you both and your life together. Love is Love X (UK fan)

This is the happy ever after the world has been waiting for. I feel so blessed that you chose to share this moment. And, whoa, what a moment! Congratulations to you both. Good things do come to those who wait and who better for something this good, this glorious, this wonderful to happen too.
Have an amazing and loving life together.
Big love to Demi also.
Thats so cute, his documentary was so heartbroken and seeing him so happy makes me have a hope that loves is for everybody, regarding the race; heritage, sexuality. I fucking love that demi let this happen so a lot of people can see how the world is supposed to be like.
So happy for you.
Shane I must say that you are an inspiration to so many people. Overcoming the darkness of being in the closet, finding love in California, enduring such a tragic loss and now this. May you guys be blessed beyond the stars. Love to you guys!
Congratulations! I’m glad you’ve gotten your happy ending. If anyone deserves to be happy it’s you!
I'm so glad you proved, that you can have more then one great love. Happiness is yours take it, embrace it, keep it. Twice in a lifetime.
When I saw this on my RUclips recommendations I nearly fainted! Rayvon and his music have a very special place in my heart. He has such a pure heart and genuine spirit and he deserves the world. I'm so glad that he has found you and you have found him. I wish you two beautiful souls nothing but happiness and joy for infinity and beyond.❤
I am soooo happy for you!!!Love always wins, tap tap tap.
😭😭😭😍😍😍CONGRATULATIONS, Shane you have helped me through some of my darkest times and I'm not going to lie but you are one of the reasons I'm here today. Thank you for showing me that life gets better, that love and help come when you need it most and when you least expect it.
CONGRATULATIONS SHANE & RAYVON !!!! i am so pleased for you both ! you are both amazing people and you both deserve a lifetime of happiness and love together and that is my wish for you both. it is always hard to fully accept a partner's on-going love and affection for a past love that died, it is totally different if they had merely split up but when the past love died there is no "competing" with them especially when they too were a wonderful and beautiful person, because that relationship didn't end due to a falling our or by mutual choice, it ended whilst both people concerned still loved each other very deeply, you have to learn to fully accept that your partner will always have them in their heart and mind, and accept that it doesn't mean that they love you any less because of this, it can quite often drive a couple apart but Rayvon is obviously a very special and beautiful guy because he has fully accepted that Tom will always be a big part of your life even though he is not physically around anymore. Shane, i am sure that Tom would, as you have said, be very happy for you and your man and would be the first to give you his blessing and love ! i genuinely and sincerely am so happy for you both, congratulations again !
Congratulations!! So happy for you both! Wishing you many years of love and blessings! ❤❤❤
this is absolutely amazing, it's also amazing that demi would do something this sweet at a concert. she seems like an awesome friend too. Congrats, you deserved this after how rough it's been for you! ❤❤
This is wonderful. Congratulations 🎊🎉🍾🎈... I am so happy for both of you.
Shane, you have been a blessing in my life during your hardest times. Your willingness to share your experiences and your fight for marriage equality guided me to be the mother to my incredible gay son that I am proud of being. Now, my dear, you fill my heart with joy and happiness. Be happy and at peace. You deserve it, both of you do. Much love.

Wow this is so wonderful and it makes me so happy. Shane I saw your documentary years ago and even to this day I still think about it, wonder what you're up to and if things turned around for you. this is the happiest surprise and it really warms my heart (and gives me some hope too.) much love to you and congratulations!!
Shane. You are one of the persons not only with the most beautiful feelings in the world, but with the ability to let them openly flow and I loved your proposal and the letter on the description box. You are such an inspiration.
I still remember watching and rewatching your video from years ago, I’m glad that you found happiness. You deserve it
I was hoping this would happen. Thanks for sharing and thanks for your continued inspiration to so many.

Awww yay!!! Ever since seeing the documentary about your loss I’ve always wondered what happened to you! My heart broke for you. I’m so happy to be a huge Demi fan and that your video was recommended by RUclips because I have been feeling unworthy of love after losing my gf whom I never thought would walk away. So to see this on today of all days, my birthday, and it be the next chapter of your journey it filled me with so much hope. Congrats to you both!!
