We went to the same school, walked the same halls, passed each other and never thought that one day we'd say "I Do". I was in a failing relationship and Matthew was working over nights at a dead end job. After a few months of liking each others social medias photos, I finally dumped that 'dead beat boyfriend' and Matthew was quick to ask me out! The first time we met up was at my mothers house. I was sitting on the back of my 83 Scottsdale long bed chevy, when Matthew pulled up in a brand new Ford Mustang. My first thought? No way was this gonna work out.. He steps out in a full gym outfit and just stands there. again me? dating a gym rat? ha no. But something in my heart told me to give him a chance and see how it goes. The next time we hung out was 4th of July, we went to watch the fireworks in Centerville, Tn. It was over crowded and started to rain so Matthew and I decided to leave, only to end up back at my house. We stood there and talked, a lot! Turns out we didn't want the date to end. So we headed to the only place serving food that late, Waffle House. Although we were both to nervous to eat we talk some more until about 2 the next morning. He took me home and there we kissed and like all first kisses, it was MAGICAL. 4 days later he asked me to be his girlfriend and 981 days later he asked me to be his wife!
