"I will probably never get married." This was always my answer. You know the question everyone asks at some point if you're single, "When are you going to settle down and get married?" In fact, I am pretty adamant about this in a previous post. I have, for the most part, always been happy with my life. I've made great friends, moved to and from some great places, and I have a splendid career. I'm a happy girl!
That's what I thought. Then I met Alex. Randomly. A friend had a party, and she made vegan food just for me, so I dragged my butt over there (I had just bought my car that day, and I was tired). There he was. Just sitting there. Alex. My heart fluttered, and we talked until he left to go home. Luckily he had the cajones to get my number first! Cut to five days later. FIVE DAYS! "Well," thought I, "that's too bad. I think I really liked him. Guess he's not going to call." I am not a sit around, wait by the phone kind of girl, so I moved on. Then he called. We went on our first date, then our second date, then a third date...wait a second...he has not annoyed me or repulsed me once. This is weird...hmmmm...after that, the third date, it was over; I was hooked! He proposed September 26, 2010. We eloped November 12, 2010. Now I am four days into marriage, and I am happy; I am so happy that I get it now! I understand all the "why aren't you married"s and the "don't you want to be with someone"s! But I promise to all my single friends, I will never ask you that! Of course I also said I'd probably never get married, and look how well that turned out:)
