Welcome to our chaos love story!

A mutual friend of ours had told me about him and asked me if she could give him my number. I said, "yeah why not." She gave him my number and he had to text me, I finally had text him back, after making him wait two weeks, on and off. I had texted him more constantly towards the end of May. I had a Honda and I was texting him about him telling him that it was smoking from the engine. I went and bought a new hose and replaced said hose. A few days after my birthday I finally decided I was ready to meet him in person and I met him at a bar; I just got off work, my car was overheating and I hear this man ask me if I didn't put my hose on right. First off, rude haha. After he came up to me, I was very annoyed with my car. my hands were dirty and he looked at me, placed his leg on my car, and said, "Just wipe on my pants." I did not wanna wipe my hands on some stranger's pants, but he said it was fine, after closing the hood to my car he told me his name and I was so embarrassed. I called him later that night and set up a time to get together so he could fix my car cause he offered.

There is not a lot to say about this one, except I was the first one to kiss him. Our mutual friend was talking to us both at the same time, all while I was talking to him. I told our mutual friend that I wanted him to kiss me, but I was telling him I wanted to wait. I was so nervous which is why there were different things being said. Well one day I had some liquid courage and I went up to his job on one hot summer day and I kissed him. After I kissed him I skipped back to my car, SKIPPED! I don't ever skip unless I do something that I was nervous to do! It was the greatest feeling ever to have the courage to go after what I wanted.

Our first "date" was him and I working on my car. He was teaching me things about my car and asking me things about myself. As we learned about each other I realized that what I was feeling was nerves. I was actually nervous around this guy! I went back to my sisters and I literally looked forward to texting him. We had text every day. I would randomly show up to his house because at the time his daughter, who is now my daughter as well, always wanted me there. This had gone on for weeks and then without really knowing what was happening I was moving in with him. We started out as friends, our first official date was at a place that is now where we go every year for our anniversary, Texas Roadhouse. It was one of the best dates ever!

When we got engaged, it was a spur of the moment. Something that I was nervous about, I had been wanting to do it for a few months now. On a warm summer June day I had called his mom for her permission to marry him, she gave me her blessing, and i went to walmart and bought him a ring. When I got home I was so nervous, but when he walked into the kitchen, I got down on one knee and asked him to marry me. He laughed and said yes. He thought it was funny that I did it at all. Now the rest is just the start of a new chapter.
