Good old VB has brought together another two crazy in love people... yay! We're not around as much as TNS and Froggy, but I still wanted to share our story. :love:
October 12, 2005. I returned to VB after not being around much. I had just broken up with my boyfriend of 3 1/2 years and headed over to the sexually frustrated club thread. There I saw VegEnigma's avatar and was drawn to him in a way I can't explain. Although I'm usually kinda shy, I thought, I'm going to message him and tell him how cute I think he is. I remember being anxious to see if he would send anything back, and luckily a day later, he did. He said that I was cute too, and it made my day :D
We messaged back and forth through PMs for a couple days, and from there we went to AIM. We talked for hours the first couple times, and I knew immediately that there was a connection. I remember thinking about him a lot, and people were asking me why I was smiling so much all of a sudden. I thought maybe I was just being crazy, but I was amazed to find out that he was feeling the same way about me. Interestingly, I had been looking at graduate schools for next fall, and he lives just 35 minutes from one of my top choice schools, Western Michigan. Oh, by the way, he's from Michigan, I'm from Pennsylvania--about 7 1/2 hours away from each other.
A couple days later we started talking on the phone, again for hours at a time. I willingly gave up sleep for a few days just to stay on the phone with him. I started feeling something unlike I ever had before. I felt so strongly and so intensely, it almost scared me at first. But talking to him eased my fears. We decided we couldn't wait any longer--we had to meet. I freaked out a little bit and talked to TNS and Froggy about my fears... what if he didn't like me? Plus, my roomates were giving me grief about meeting someone from the internet. The happy VB couple gave great advice.
But we went for it. He bought a bus ticket, and here we are now at my computer typing this while making out intermittently :p . When I first saw him come in the door of the bus station, I knew everything was going to be okay. I gave him a huge hug, and he kissed me... best kiss of my life up until that point. Later that night, when I looked into his gorgeous blue eyes, I saw my future, as cheesy as that may sound. Now we're just keeping our fingers crossed that I get into Western, but even if I don't, we're gonna make it work somehow.
So, yay, that's our story. We have other stuff to do ;) but here's some pics of us taken just minutes ago:
