We first met nearly 3 years before we actually started dating. We exchanged numbers at D Bar and went on a couple of dates and I knew Darrell would be the one. I wasn't mentally in a place in life to commit to a relationship so as Darrell would say, "he put me on the back burner" LOL. We stayed friends and left it up to the universe to bring us back together if it was meant to be. After Darrell had a couple of failed relationships he came running back to me of course LOL! It still took 1 kid and 5 years of being together for him to finally pop the question on Christmas morning of 2022!
