How it all started


I met Daniel on January 22nd 2011, at my "year of no liking guys" party. Ironic, right? Well, let me back up and explain.

On January 8th 2010, I had one of many "let's just be friends" talks. I had it. after that happened I told myself that I would go as long as I could without liking any guys. I was so excited when I got to 1 month, and then 2 months, then I got to 7 months and I was so excited that I told my friend JoAnna that I got to 7 months, she told me that if I would make it a year she would throw me a party. So, when I made it to 9 months I told myself, "ya know, I can be happy without a guy, I can make it to a year! and then I would see really cute guys and my heart would be like... LIKE HIM!! and then I told myself, NO! I am going to make it to a year. and then the day came that I made it to a year and I got so excited that I forgot all about looking for the perfect guy.

My party was on January 22nd, 2011. I was so excited! It was a huge accomplishment for me that I wasn't thinking that about when I told my friends to come to my party that when my friend Austin told me that he  would bring his friend Daniel to the party. I wasn't like "oh is he cute??" like I usually do. anyways, the time of my party came and Austin came and I met Daniel but I didn't really think of anything mostly cuz my brain was still in the "year of no liking guys" mode for some reason. Anyways, as the time went on, I sang a song on the Karoake machine and then after Daniel was singing on the rock band or Karaoke (I don't remember...) and then I was sitting by Austin and he leaned over to me and said "Daniel thinks your cute" and so I was like, really??? but I still didn't think much of it, cuz well my brain was still in the mode, but I did notice that he was always sitting by me and stuff, and then Austin left and Daniel stayed till the end and when he left I went to say bye to him and he said "would you mind if I got your number from Austin?" I don't know why he didn't say "Can I get your number?" but the silly me said "Sure!" but anyways, I went back inside and I told JoAnna that he didn't ask for my number, but he did ask if Austin would give it to him, and I started freaking out because I wanted to get to know him more and my mind was going a bazillion miles a minute thinking, "is he gonna text me???" so anyways, the next day after church he texted me and I was like "oh my gosh, this isn't happening." so anyways, we started hanging out and we started holding hands, and cuddling and then on February 5th he told me he liked me and then I told him that I've never been kissed and then he said "really??? that's surprising, how would you feel if I was your first?" and then I said "ummm... okay??" I was a little nervous not gonna lie but he kissed me and at first I was like, "that was it?" haha but then I was like, Oh my gosh, I got my first kiss! so then we hung out more (no, we weren't "official" then... haha) and then on February 13th 2011, the day before Valentines day he said the words I thought I wouldn't hear in my life "would you like to be my girlfriend?" and I said "YES!!" and we have been the cutest couple ever since. and 3 months and 3 weeks after we started dating he proposed to me.
