We met through a duo of mutual friends of ours. Loren and Kelvin are BOTH responsible for this relationship. Although hesitant at first, I advised Loren that I thought I had a thing for Omar. That quickly got relayed through Kelvin, and got back to Omar. We had similar tastes in sports, movies, and music as we learned through social media. On my birthday, Omar dropped by my parents home with a small gift and card. Very small gesture, but meant everything to me at the time. Ever since that day we were inseparable. We talked for hours on hand, planned trips, met each others friends and family.. then Super Storm Sandy hit NY. My family lost power for almost 2 weeks and during that time I spent a lot of time at Omar's family condo. They did not have to look after me how they did, but that showed me everything I needed to see about the kind of man Omar is. I knew from that moment that I would marry him if he would have me. Its been blissful ever since.
