I was tired that night and didn't want to go out after work but my friend's begged and begged and I caved. So I went to our mutual friend Shawna’s birthday party at Skeeters bar and when I got there I went out onto the deck to meet everyone. She was introducing me to the few people I did not know and when got to the last person at the end of the table, it was Shawn. He looked up and said hi and I said hi and looked at Shawna and said shit! She said "What?" and I said "Shit!" Because I was instantly and in seconds struck by invisable nerve-racking lightning. I had zero intrest of ever being interested in anyone ever again lol. It was him. I knew it that very second...he was the one. My stomach flipped and my Hartbeat was in my ears in second’s. I could fell my face turn red and blushing was obvious. Of course I instantly planned to never speak to him and make agool of my self so I quickly walked away in panick lol. So I stayed at the other end of the very long table and couldnt even sit down I was so nervous and confused. They kept trying to get me to sit down at the only open chair which was right next to him but I just couldn't and kept replying I was fine standing lol. I stole a few looks here and there when he wasn't looking and apperently so did he. later in the night Shawna and I went to go to the bathroom and Shawn said all cute "Can I come? and I said nope." Over my shoulder. A little while later he said goodbye to everyone. I said bye nice to meet you and he said you too and that was that. The next morning I had a message request from a guy named marlboromann and it was him asking if I was talking to anyone and I said no and asked him the same and he said no and he asked me to get coffee sometime and we finally went on a date a few weeks later, after talking on the phone everyday for a while and my daughter Sam convincing me to go for it and give him a chance...…...and the rest is history and has become our happily ever after.
