We’re Getting Married!

Her perspective: We met at work. We actually weren’t interested in each other at first. Like at all. It wasn’t even a thought. Because let’s be honest no one looked good in those deli uniforms and the hairnets did no one any favors. But the first time I saw him out of uniform I was like “oh! He is really cute”. Since we were only friends at the time, that thought came and went. One day out of nowhere he asked me on a date and hesitant as I may have been, here we are 4 years later. His Perspective: Raquel hated me when we first met. I was just an annoying coworker. She says neither of us knew we were attracted to each other when we first met, but I think it was there way before she will admit. She thought I was joking when I asked her out on a date, but I think it’s pretty clear now exactly how serious I was.

His perspective: I completely botched it! I had to work earlier that day and had already told everyone that I planned to propose that night. Her best friend helped me plan the perfect date to do it and everything. Well, of course I didn’t get off in time. We were losing daylight and if I didn’t do it that night I knew someone would tell her at work. So I had to cancel everything and propose before it was too late. She was upset that she wasn’t dressed for the moment, but I think it all worked out in the end. Her Perspective: I’ve never had so many different feelings at one time. I realized on the car ride to the park pretty quickly what was about to happen. All I knew was you wouldn’t tell me why your mom was with you and you were adamant on us going to the park even though I wanted to go home. I wanted to crawl in a hole because I was wearing leggings and a T-shirt with a stain on it. And though it didn’t go how I pictured it… I’ll never forget the sunset, the pretty view, and the feeling when we got home of knowing that one day soon I would be your wife. Now we are getting married on the anniversary of that crazy day.
