The definition of Fate: destined to happen, turn out, or act in a particular way.
That is how you could sum up our relationship.
We met in 2003, Patrick was a senior at Argonaut High School, and I, a freshman. We dated for close to three years before the decision was made to go our seperate ways. As difficult as it was, college and other life changing events were happening that made it difficult to focus on "us".
We remained friends over the years, talking often and meeting for the occasional lunch or dinner. It had always been so easy for us to just be together and talk. In the six years that we were apart we congratulated each other on accomplishments: graduating from college, jobs, etc. And also were there for each other in the sad times: losing family members, diffuculty in other relationships, etc.
Now lets fast foward to the beginning of 2013. The both of us were working on getting our Realtor license and we helped each other along the way. We started seeing each other more frequently and talking over the phone on a daily basis. Again, it was just easy to be with one another. I know that both of us knew that if it wasn't going to happen now, we may miss the chance forever. Like they say "Sometimes you have to jump in and take the chance," and that is exactly what we did! We decided to move in together in May, and the rest is history. Both of us are the happiest we have ever been, and cannot wait to start our furture together as husband and wife and take that journey as far as life will lead us! |
