He was instantly attracted to her and asked her out, but she said she was too busy. Nixon then told her he was going to marry her someday and she laughed. They finally started dating, but she continued dating others. Nixon would drive Pat to her date, wait around and then drive her home. On May 1, 1940, he slipped an engagement ring in a May Day basket of flowers.On June 21, 1940, they were married at the Mission Inn in Riverside, California.
