Not Engaged Yet

Hello ladies! New here. :)

Hello! My name is Demetria (Demi) and I wanted to come join you all and share my not yet engaged story. I am 32 with a birthday coming up on this Wednesday. SO is Jason he is 36 as of past Feburary. We met at a mall, I had 2 kids from previous highschool sweetheart and he and I were total opposites, he had no kids and had just moved to town the in the previous months before meeting me. It took be forever to go out with him, when we did finally, we slowly hit it off...he actually proposed to me only 2 months after we met, which I said yes, but it proved to be in the next few months that we moved way to fast. I became pregnant with our 1st baby together and those set of emotional rollercoasters alone were enough, but also add to the fact that we were still getting to know each other made for a terrible relationship. 

I broke off the engagement and gave the ring back. We went through a tornado to say the least after the baby Ava came and we are a few months back to normal. I suffered from Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Post tramatic stress syndrome (stemming from a horrible birth experience). I feel back to my old self and we are working things out. 

VERY slowly talking about getting married/wedding again, we have been together almost 2yrs and we have a lot more to build on now than we did the first go around. We are talking wedding again, and even though I don't have a ring (he sold the original one back to the jewerly store) I am so excited and it will actually feel like the 1st time he's ever proposed. I look forward to getting to know you ladies!!

I am still trying to figure out how to get my avatar working as well as a picture small enough to have a face to go along with my post!
