We met at Georgia Southern University in 2006. We hung out for a little while but neither of us were ready for a REAL relationship. Brian was a year ahead of me and was well known on campus (especially with the ladies) and I was a freshman trying to explore my options, so we went our separate ways but remained friends. After college, we kept in contact. Although it was few and far between, I knew our friendship was a special one because when we did connect, we would pick up where we left off, like no time had passed. We were both in relationships so the likelihood of us dating was slim. However, in 2015, we both were single and ready to mingle!! Our first date was Dec. 12, 2015 at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, which is also where he proposed. The same day as our first date. Brian said he always knew we would end up together. I guess he was right!
