My impending nuptials are a short month and a half away, but all good stories have a beginning. I would like to start there. Mister and I began our relationship as friends when we were 19 years old. The first night we met each other, we hit it off. Our pals had introduced us knowing that we would get along. We had so much in common–mainly our quirky sense of humor. We let our friendship be just that since we were both involved at the time. We remained as buddies even after our other relationships ended.

Unattached for a year, we spent a lot of our free time together going to our favorite coffee shop, watching musical performances, and taking flying lessons. Basically, these were dates, but we didn’t know it. It seemed everyone else around us did. “Are you in love with him?” quizzed my best friend. “Why do you always dress up to hang out with ‘just a friend’?” my father inquired. “Yeah, how come?” chimed in my sister. D’oh! I had to admit to myself that I’d had a thing for Mister for quite some time, but how do I broach the subject with him? Through a drunken game of truth or dare, of course. Sad, I know, but the truth surfaced. Turns out, he liked me, too. We’ve been going strong ever since. Three and a half years later, we are ready to make our relationship official before our family and friends. Cue the wedding planning madness!
