This was not supposed to happen....at most we were both looking for a good time with friends, some shameless flirting, and a few drinks. Love was the last thing on either of our minds. Rob was recently separated and Megan was happy being single- never thinking that a relationship like this could be real. But the universe has a funny way of proving you wrong when you least expect it. By our third date, we realized that we were in BIG trouble and this could be something special. Conversations quickly turned from “getting to know you” stuff to mindful conversations of “how do we not mess this up”. We both had a lot of baggage and battle wounds. Stuff that would make normal people run. We are both prideful, fiery, stubborn, only children who are used to having it their own way. But something crazy happened. Instead of putting up walls, we were honest- brutally honest- with each other and vulnerable enough to trust the person sitting across the table with every part of who we are. That’s where “the work” as we call it (the talks, the compromises, the choices we make every day) began and in return it has brought us to this day of celebration and we cannot be more excited! What we have built together is unlike anything we have ever known. It is a life of total acceptance, nonstop laugher, of wanting to be better people for one another, of equality, and love. We may not have been looking for each other, but we cannot imagine life without each other.
