November 30, 2015 was one of the most important dates of my life. On this day, I met the love of my life. That date will forever be special to me, as it has affected my life in so many positive ways. We found each other at just the right time for the both of us, and together changed our lives for the better. If it weren’t for a friend’s persuasion, and maybe a little fate, I would not be where I am today.
A few months prior to the 30th, I broke up with my girlfriend of 2 and a half years. She decided that I was not enough for her (three times), so I decided to end the relationship. I was a wreck, and I decided to take a break from dating. A few months pass, and a few days prior to the bonfire, I was hanging out with my best friend, Christian, …show more content…
He ran up to us, giving me the usual handshake and chest bump. “What’s up guys?” he said, smiling at me as if to hint something. “Nothing much, just showed up to your house for the fire,” I said as I nudged him to hint that he needs to cut it out. We entered his backyard; It was dark and the fire was blazing. A large group of our friends were already gathered around the fire, chatting away. It was a perfect night, and all I could smell was Abby’s perfume and the fire. We hung out with our friends, sang some songs, and had an all-around great time. Around midnight, Christian kicked everyone out. As everyone was leaving, Christian gave me a wink. He was hinting that I should make a move on the way home. I responded with a middle-finger, and told him “It’s not going to happen.” Abby and I drove home, and talked about how much fun we had, and how we should do it again some time. When we got to her house, we were both hesitating to leave. After minutes of stalling (and thinking about what Christian had said), I decided to take another shot in the dark; I leaned over and kissed her. She knew what was about to happen, and leaned in at the same time. It was unlike anything I had felt before. It made me fill up with joy, like a toddler on christmas morning. My cheeks turned red, and my heart skipped a few beats. After our few seconds of heaven ended, She got out of the car and said “Thank you, Shane.” “It’s no problem” I told her. Later that night, all I could think about was that kiss. It made me realise that she cared about me, and more importantly that she was interested in me.
After this day, we decided to start dating. Over time, we have learned a lot about each other; some things good, some things bad. No matter what, we have dedicated ourselves to making each other better as a collective. To this day, my feelings have not changed, and I still have plenty to learn about Abby. One thing is for sure, though: She is the
