I talked to a few girls, one of which was promising until we planned on a afternoon drinking date on Good Friday and she blew me off, texting me about an hour or so before saying she was "sick" and couldn't make it and could we reschedule?
We didn't and I moved on. A few days after Easter, I got a poke or wink or whatever they call it from some girl in King of Prussia. She was cute, her profile seemed interesting and I winked back.
We emailed a few times, she gave me her number and we texted and eventually called each other. We talked for about an hour or so as she drove to her friends house who was getting married that next day and we decided to meet up for drinks Saturday after the wedding.
The rest is history so they say. I'm not going to bore you with a month to month diary of how our relationship has gone, thats boring and I'm at work so I don't have time to do it anyway. If you really want to know message me and we can chat :-)
What you need to know is that this girl has changed my life. Being with Mel has been the best,happiest and most fulfilling time in my short 30 years and I can't imagine spending my life with anyone else.
After about 6 months or so together, she asked if I would be ok if we moved to Austin, TX from Philly. I knew at that time that I loved her and she was worth uprooting myself and seeing what else life held for me and I said yes. As you well know we moved in June and this has been the biggest test of our relationship and we have had our ups and downs, we bicker, we fight, but we love each other so much that it scares me to think of life without her.
In everything we have been through the good, the bad, the depressing, the beautiful and the ugly, I wouldn't have done anything differently. Everything has brought us closer to each other in ways that I could never ever explain in words or emotions. She is as much a part of me as I am a part of her.
I hope these first two years of our lives together is only the start of something so much better. If thats even possible.
Mel,
I love you so much, everytime I see you, I smile and thank God that you are a part of my life. I don't know what I did to get so lucky but I'll take it and run with it because you are everything that is good in my life.
