We met in our 4th grade class with Mr. Green. I had a crush on him all through out elementary school and my first year of middle school. But after the end of our 6th grade year he had a crush on me and then I moved to Texas. I came back to Grand Forks to attend UND my freahman year, he was attending Northland Community College (and had a girlfriend at the time). So once again I moved; this time to Oklahoma where I stayed for two years. Every Summer I came back to live and work with my Dad. But again, he still had a girlfriend. Summer of 2016 I moved back up; but this time to Shelly, MN with my Dad. It wasn’t till that winter that we got in contact again. He will tell everyone our meeting story is that I used him... but I kind of did. Lol I was working on remodeling the house I was planning on moving into and needed someone with a truck since none of Dad’s were working. I knew he had a truck and the day off so I asked if he could do me a favor by hauling some flooring for me. We (He) talked the whole hour drive to Shelly and the whole hour drive back to Grand Forks. We stopped and had a little date at DQ and we (he) talked some more. We hung out two more times after that and he asked me out, I said no. Because I had a change of plans on moving back to Texas (the house and things weren’t working out). But like everything Ryan does, he was persistent on not giving up and winning and we hung out more and he asked again. This time I said yes.
