Nate & I met back in 2019. We started out as best-friends prior to our relationship. He was my safe space long before romantic emotion came into the picture! I will never forget the first time we finally hung out with each other in person, outside of a FaceTime call. The second I was in his presence the butterflies came soon enough. We talked for hours in a car, and if you know me, you know that I did in fact fill the silence with my chit chat. But for the first time in a long time, I didn’t feel like an annoying yapper, or a burden. He just sat there and gave me the space to talk about all the things. My childhood, my goals, things that made me who I was. He just sat there in aw and let me talk away. I knew from that day on I had found the one. I was so overjoyed. Our first days together began with car rides, jamming out to music. Nate and I started dating January 12th, 2020. Nate had popped the question of asking me to be his girlfriend on the 1st. But, we were young, and dumb kids who got drunk on New Year’s Eve, and his goofy, adorable self asked me out while being very drunk on that night. I had told him no, let’s try again when you’re not so trashed. We have spent 6 beautiful years of life together. We have grown in so many ways along side each other and with one another. Nate has seen me by far at my worst states in life, I’ve shown him my darkest moments, and he’s never let go of my hand. He’s always continued to guide me, protect me, and support me no matter what. We have been through the darkness together, to finding the light together. Just about almost 3 years ago, Nate and I found Jesus Christ, and we gave our life’s to Him. It was the best decision we had ever made in our life. Almost a year later, we got baptized together. To this day, we’ve been walking along side with each other with Christ at the center. As our biggest day of our life’s come closer, there is no one else in this life that I would want to do this walk with. God blessed me with the most perfect man for me, and I thank God everyday for bringing him into my world. I am so blessed to be able to say “I do” to the one I get to grow old with, and serve for the rest of my life.
