Loving You Forever

Our journey started at SUNY New Paltz- more specifically the gym! Phil was a year ahead of me and I had often seen him around campus but the stars took a year to align before our paths finally crossed. Phil was working the evening shift in the gym and I had come to work out. I always smiled hello at him when I walked into his section of the gym thinking one day I'd have the guts to say something as small as "hey". Turns out that was the day. While I was working out, Phil walked up to my bench and asked if I needed him to spot me. The only thing I could get out was a very stern "no" because I was nervous I'd actually drop the weights. Thankfully he didn't take no for an answer. He hung around me as I finished my workout and we chatted effortlessly. Before we knew it, it was 8pm and the gym was closing and as I was packing my bag to head out Phil asked if I wanted to grab a late night burrito at MexiCali Blue.
