| The Day I Met My Best Friend |
| by Angel |
The way that I met my boyfriend was a total fate thing, so anyone who doesn't belive in fate HAS to read this.
It was Febuary 22nd and me and my best friend were in a huge fight. Just a week before, her and my boyfriend at the time had hooked up. I was tremendously hurt, and felt betrayed. The two people that I trusted the most had hurt me. Me and my friend had a Thursday night tradition of going out to play pool, go to the club, go to a movie...whatever. We ALWAYS were together on Thursday nights. Well this particular Thursday we were fighting so I stayed home to feel sorry for myself:) I had just gotten my computer a month before, and decided to get in Napster to download some music. While I was waiting for music to download I got in the chat room to pass the time. I was chatting with a few people when someone IMed me and asked me something about converting MP3 files...I knew nothing about it so we stopped talking. I saw him talking to another guy in the chat room and eventually I IMed him and asked him something....and we just kept talking. Before I knew it 4 hours had gone by. I was wanting to go to bed so we exchanged MSN user names so that we could chat again.
The next night he was online and we talked for another few hours. I knew right off the bat that he was someone I wanted to get to know better, but strictly on a friends basis, I had just been hurt and wasn't ready to go through something like that again. He was in the same boat...so we kept it on a safe friendly level, but both of us could tell that it was developing into something different.
Within a couple of weeks we decided to exchanged pictures so we could see who we had been spending all these hours talking to. When I got his picture I meleted..he was georgeous. By the time we exchanged pics looks didn't matter to me, I had already begun to fall in love with who he was, despite what he looked like, but like i said, he was georgeous.
Shortly after that we decided to take it to the next step and talk on the phone. After hearing his voice I knew I had to meet him, and maybe, even possibly forget my rule about being "just friends" and admit that I had fallen in love with him.
Then one night on the phone I did just that. With the help of liquid courage I told him I loved him, and he told me he loved me back. We made plans to meet a month later.
I took a greyhound bus for 2 and a half days from Kansas to Montana just to go see him. When I got off the bus in Montana I was terrified. I was about to meet the man that I had never seen in person, yet fallen madly in love with. I hadn't had a shower in 2 days...and was really hoping he wasn't going to go off of first impressions:) But the 3 weeks I spent there were perfect. It was akward only for a few hours....then it was just like we had been around eachother for our whole lives. We said goodbye with tears in our eyes and promised to see eachother soon.
A couple months and a few thousand phone calls later he came down to see me, and once again, we picked up right where we left off. It was then that we made plans to move in together. He was going to be moving down to Arizona in October for college, and I decided to move with him and go to college in AZ as well.
So at the begining of October we moved down to AZ together and now share an apartment. In less than a year of meeting, and only seeing eachother in person twice we were living together.
It hasn't always been easy, we have our share of problems just like any couple, but I know we've come so far because above anything else, we're best friends. He's my everything, he honestly completes me. I can be myself around him, tell him anything and he still loves me.
Its been a little over a year now and we're still going strong. Who would of guessed that a fight with my friend would cause all this? And the funny thing is, she's now pregnant and married to my ex! It both worked out for the both of us. Both of us have found our soulmates and I couldn't be happier. :) |
