Alonso and I were childhood friends, we grew up in the same area and went to the same middle school together. We hung out with the same crowd but never hung out privately. We continued our lives and went off to different high schools. We reconnected through a mutual friend when I was 20. We had the best time with each other! Our connection was so natural. I remember laughing so much with him! We started to hang out more often but always with friends. He finally asked me to the movies. Our first intimate date.. I wanted to give him some movie credit, but unfortunately, he took me to see the most boring war movie I had ever seen. LOL. It was after that day we had become inseparable! We easily spent every weekend together... Every weekend became every day. We pulled the trigger and moved in with each other. We started life together, as the years went on, we learned so much about each other. Through the highs and lows, we grew together. We had overcome so many challenges in our relationship and still remain a strong couple! Alonso is so patient, kind, loving and caring. Even after being with him for 8 years, he has never shown me differently. His character remains the same. He is my unconditional love I have always wanted. He is my safe place. As we begin our next chapter in our lives. The married chapter if you will.. We ask our friends and family to come and celebrate our big day with us!
