Robert and I actually met in elementary school. 5th grade to be exact. We have been friends (ish) since then. We had similar friend groups. He claims that we dated in 6th grade but I broke up with him because we never saw each other at school. I do not remember this 😂. Robert has always been a big flirt. And I had a crush on him for as long as I can remember. Several times from 5th grade until we started dating, he tried to flirt with me but I always friend zoned him…. lol. Sophomore year of high school rolls around and I finally decided to give him a chance. We started talking shortly before Thanksgiving 2014. We had our first date at the movie theater with my parents and we watched Ouija. A long while later I found out Robert HATES paranormal stuff. Whoops 😂 In the weeks leading up to our date, I had Robert throughly convinced my dad’s name was also Alison. So when we met at the movie theater 11/29/2014, my dad shook Robert’s hand and introduced himself as Alison. Robert went on to believe this until the end of the night lol. At the end of the movie Robert handed me this sweet note and then asked me to be his girlfriend. Since then, the rest of our relationship has been nothing but milestones. We bought our first house in 2020, we got engaged in 2021 in Tennessee, I graduated from college in 2023 and we had our precious baby girl in 2023. Now we are navigating a whole new world, being parents. It has absolutely been a wild ride. But I throughly believe we were made for each other ❤️
