We met in the fall of 2008. I was a senior and he was a freshman at Lamar Consolidated high school. We were both in JROTC and when I graduated in the summer of 2009 and left for the military, he became best friends with my brother. When I returned from the military, we remained close friends and hung out all the time. In 2015 we both were working the overnight shift at Walgreens where we saw each other constantly and became closer than ever. April 17th 2017 he asked me to be his girlfriend and I finally said yes!
