I first met Ryan at the job we worked at. I thought he was handsome from the first time I saw him. I was always eyeballing him! I saw that he was incredibly skilled at the job he did and that added to his appeal for me. Over time we became friends and found out we had some things in common. We went on hikes together and played music. I was the first one to want more than just a friendship. When he finally got on board it made me so happy! Here we are 4 years later and he’s the love of my life. The man I’m going to marry and spend my life with. He’s my best friend, my other half. There’s no one else I’d rather marry. We’ve been through good and bad, ups and downs, highs and lows. Some really lows but we came through stronger and happier. I couldn’t ask for a better partner to grow and learn with. We are different people than the 2 kids that met working at the plasma center. I look forward to continuing to grow and build a life with Ryan. I thank God for bringing us together and I can’t wait to spend forever with the man of my dreams!
