It All Started With A Poke: Man Proposes To
Woman He Met On Facebook With Zuckerberg In
Attendance
A COUPLE WHO met on Facebook have become
engaged after a surprise proposal at the
company’s headquarters in California.
Steven Kawalit from Ontario, Canada met fiancée
Nafis Joon when he ‘poked’ her after she
appeared on his Facebook timeline back in 2007.
The pair kept talking and started going out after
Joon agreed to a date.
Kawalit decided to keep the spontaneous
Facebook theme in their relationship by proposing
in Facebook’s headquarters in Menlo Park,
California, telling his now-fiancée that he had
won a competition for a free tour.
While the two were posing for a photo in Hacker
Square, a Facebook employee asked them to turn
around, revealing the words ‘Nafis, will you marry
me?’ on the big screen.
Surrounded by CEO Mark Zuckerberg and COO
Sheryl Sandberg, he got down on one knee.
When people ask us how we met, we say
‘mutual friends’. And today you meet your
mutual friends. Nafis, I love you very much.
You’re my best friend. Will you marry me?
She said yes. STATUS UPDATE.
