After a brief meeting, Cody and I exchanged numbers. We texted for a whole month before our first date because he told me had to babysit a friends newborn kitten. It was the strangest excuse I've ever gotten from a man but yet it kept me interested. Eventually we went on a date and ended up kissing in the rain. Cody asked me to be his girlfriend after the very 1st date and I said yes on that day 8.3.16. We both took a leap of faith from the very beginning, only relying on our instincts about each other and we were both right to have felt how we felt.
