His frat helped set up for it and he was there. We'd met a couple times after that in the next couple months but never really got to know one another as more than aquanitences. I moved away and a year later I moved to a town 40 miles away from where we met. 4 weeks after my little girl was born I began working at TeleTech. As fate would turn out, he started that exact same day. Not only did we start work the same day we had matching schedules. We recognized one another from those few times long ago and we became instant best friends. Since then our relationship has been amazing and I cant believe were finally getting married!!
