Ladies and gentlemen, it finally happened.

A man actually proposed to his girlfriend through virtual reality.

According to TIME, Chandler Murch invited his now-fiancée, Kelly Tortorice, to visit him at Valve Corporation where he works. Murch told Tortorice he was testing out a new virtual reality headset and needed her help.

In a Facebook post, Tortorice wrote,

Chandler told me to grab it. Then told me to take off my headset, and there he really was, on one knee, with a real ring.

Who said virtual reality isn't reality? It's real.

She explained,

Isn't that sweet? Expect the unexpected, even in the pixelated world of virtual reality!
