Love story time!

Running into my ex yesterday made me reflect on me and Chris' love story and also made me reflect on all my ex's. I dated a lot of creeps before I met Chris. By the time I met Chris I was about to give up on love and stop looking. It was met to be from the beginning. We started dating December 15th 2002. A cool fact about this date was it was Brody's original due date but different year of course and if that doesn't tell you that it was meant to be than I don't know what would lol. He was originally going after my friend Teala. Teala wasn't interest in him and thought that he would be a perfect match with me. I told her that I wasn't ready to date yet and I wasn't interest and she said that she would give him my number anyways. I wasn't too happy about that. The first time he called me we talked on the phone for hours and we found a lot of things in common. It was like we have known each other our whole lives. That conversation changed everything. It was like everything came naturally. He was working at Walmart at the time and I remember I would try anything and anyway to see him at his work. We found out that we liked the same kind of music and before we even started dating he surprised me with a mixed CD that he made. And I still have that CD to this day. I thought that was real sweet of him. I didn't want to get too close to him but it was like we were drawn to each other. We never wanted to be apart. I felt comfortable telling him about my past relationships and he felt the same way. I had nothing to hide with him. He said that it was love at first sight with him and I don't know if it was that way with me; it's hard to say. I think I was more reserved because I didn't want to get my heart broken again because trust me it has millions of times. I will always remember the day that I met his family. I sat right next to his dad and everyone was shocked and they all looked at me like I had three heads or something. I was like what I am just being friendly and they go on to tell me that everyone is afraid of his father and I had to laugh because looking at his dad you wouldn't think he was a scary person. And from that day forward me and his dad has always had that special bond;  he is like a real father to me. His mom mentioned to Chris that I was going to be the woman that he married because if anyone can sit by his dad the first time meeting him than she is a keeper haha! I also will remember the exact day that I realize that I didn't want to live without him. It was the day before high school graduation and I was hanging out with him and I had a really bad headache to the point that it was making me sick and he took me home that day and helped me into my house, ran my bath, helped me into the bath and waited until I was done taking a bath and getting dressed and helped me into bed. I thought if he was going to take care of me like this than he was going to take care of me the rest of my life. He is my soul mate! We even think the same thing before one of us even says it. People always say we are two peas in the pod and I truly believe that. He is my better half and we were always meant to be! When I told my mom that I ran into my ex Dan she told me that he was so creepy and I agree lol. She also said that I got lucky with Chris and I truly believe that. God sent him to me!! I wasn't looking for love but it came to me. She also told me that she hopes I tell Chris just how blessed that I am everyday and I am. I truly am!
