October 2016 We met around Halloween time. Suzy was Fantastic Mr. Fox. Wes was...nothing. It started briefly with chats here and there, talking about the things we liked and were interested in. A few weeks passed. Wes continued on with his job and Suzy continued on in her last semester of her undergrad before she made a trip out to Australia. December 2016 Out of the blue, Wes reached out and we set up a date. Finally some quality time to spend together! There was an instant connection after some awkward moments, but we both knew that the other was one of a kind. We spent as much time together as we could before Suzy had to leave. There was no choice to stay home for this man she just met; she was so excited for this adventure to come, but she was also feeling really blue about leaving Wes. January 15, 2017 Suzy left for Sydney, Australia. And she and Wes talked all day everyday for 6 months. Over those 6 months, our attraction for one another grew until it was love. We were loving each other from thousands of miles away. We would share EVERYTHING: how our days went, crazy family stories, new experiences, etc. And the whole time we would wish that we were with the other. About halfway through the 6 months apart the talk of marriage came up. There was never an option for Wes to not wait for Suzy and there was never any option for Suzy to come home to anyone except Wes (and her family). July 2017 Suzy came home from Australia and the 6 months apart fell away. How sweet if felt to be together once again!! June 2018 Can we be married already!? #soyimpatient
