Hi everybody!
So I've been kind of exploring the Knot community, and I figured it's about time I actually introduced myself and started sharing in the knot boards and getting to know other Knotties and Knotties-to-be! Figured I'd start with the story of how me and my husband-to-be met lol...here goes...
My bf and I have been dating for 6 months (Saturday was our 6-month dating anniversary XD), and even though we're still in the infant stages of our relationship, we've already started looking at our future together.
We met back in June 4th at our workplace - it was my first night on the job, and while I was working my BF came in to visit my co-workers and came over to talk to me while I was doing some cleaning. Right away we were chatting and we really connected. He was wearing a cast because he had broken his wrist not long before that night, and before he left I signed his cast, "from your new best friend" (amazing how things worked out!). We only ever worked together for one shift, because of his broken wing- by the time his arm was out of the cast, I was headed on a two-week vacation to my hometown in Newfoundland, and when I returned he had moved on to another job!! Still, for months afterward we saw each other fairly often, because he used to bring his year-old son to see me and my coworkers at work. After a night out with our co-workers, the next day he e-mailed me with his phone number, and on a whim I texted him. Again we started hitting it off (really hitting it off- like, texting each other nonstop!!)
We started having little dates here and there, and he'd drop by to see me at the university while I was on my lunch break before he started his shift at work nearby. From there things just kind of snowballed and our dates became more frequent (became a sort of Friday night tradition because it was one of the few nights the pair of us weren't working at the time). Since then, we are becoming more and more committed to each other- we see each other for a few hours almost nightly before he heads to work (we live 30 minutes apart right now, which has been kind of hard- but we're looking to start living together really soon), and in the meantime we spend our weekends living together at his place until we can get our very own nest together.
The more time we've been together, the more we've realized that we want to become a family, and started thinking about a wedding and married life. I guess we could say I'm more of the planner in this respect, but he's been very happy and open about the whole thing, and we are both very excited to see what lies ahead!! Can't wait to share more of our story and planning with all of you lovely ladies!!
