hey linny!
i love your story. it's not dull at all, actually pretty romantic!
let's see. oct of 2007 got out of a year relationship. oct of 07 i worked at the bar and DH worked at the bar, however, we were NEVER on the same schedule so i had no idea he existed. i kept hearing from all my friends that there was a new bar back that was "sooo hot." i finally saw him and said, "yeah..he's okay" and my BFF had a huge crush on him. well, one night, i had a few too many and thought he was hot so i threw myself at him. (yeah, go me! lol!) wam bam, thank you ma'am. thought that was the end of that. but then, like a psycho, he got my name off the work schedule and text me. from there on out we "hung out/booty call" whatever you want to call it every so often. sometimes once a week, sometimes once every two weeks..ya know.about 6 months into that we decided to become a couple, and that just never worked, lol. we kept dumping each other because we didn't want to be in relationships. we were both huge partiers, flirts, drinkers, and couldn't handle the title at the moment (not to mention i had been in long relationships for years, and i was over it.) i think we both knew what was there, but we didn't want to stop what we were doing long enough to figure it out. i dumped him for the umpteenth time in march of 2009, dated another guy until april, and then never spoke to DH for about 4 months (that was really rare for us..) well end of aug of 08 he text me and we met at a bar and talked for hours and decided to work it out. sept of 08 he shipped for basic training, oct of 08 i shipped to basic training, nov of 08 he wrote me a letter proposing, and dec of 08 we got married. it was a roller coaster of emotions, for sure, and we both made soooo many mistakes..but i wouldn't change anything for the world. i found my soul mate, best friend, and everything rolled into one. long story, i know, but it really can't be explained any other way!
