My BF and I met back in Spring 2009 at Port Authority in NYC. We were both anxiously waiting on line for the bus heading back home to NJ from the concrete jungle aka "the City." I would see him occasionally and always thought to myself..."that guy is cute!", but I would just ignore it and would think I'm going insane to be admiring a guy on the bus that I dont even know. But then, there was a specific week where he was either waiting in line behind me or in front of me every day. We would exchange smiles or just have small talk about how late the bus was, but that was it, b/c after all he was a stranger. Until one day, after not seeing him for about a period of 2 weeks or so, waiting in line again, of course, I happened to see him at the bottom of the stairs. I waved to him with excitement and he smiled and waved back. Was he as happy to see me and I was to see him? Then, I stop and think "OMG, I'm such an idiot, WTF was I thinking...I don't even know this guy to be waving at him. "He's going to think I'm a stalker and some kind of weirdo." So, I get on the bus so embarrassed that I bury my head in one of the Twilight books I was reading at the time. All of a sudden, he approaches me, introduces himself and says..."Hi Sweetie, I always see you on the bus, I wanted to introduce myself and get your name." Now, I'm sweating to death and I'm thinking "OMG OMG OMG", but I tell him my name, shake his hand and thank him for introducing himself. After a few months of being bus buddies, and discovering we have sooo much in common, we decided to hang out one Summer night and we never left each other's sight.
A year and a 1/2 later, we moved in together and we're now engaged. He asked me on New Year's Eve, right before the ball dropped in front of all my family and friends. I dont remember all he said, it was just a blur to me b/c I was such shock but he mentioned..."2010 was an amazing year for us both and I want to end 2010 with you as my GF and 2011 with you and my fiance." At that point, I just melted and cried my eyeballs out. It was amazing and such beautiful moment that I still get teary eyed talking about it. I couldn't have had it any other way. When you know...you know and I've never felt so right about anything before in my life.
Now, I have to figure out how to be a Stylish and Sassy Bride on a budget. Let the wedding planning begin!
Toodles-So Sassy!
