Five years

Seven and a half years ago, in early November, my college roommate dragged me upstairs to meet a former dining service coworker of hers. She thought we’d be perfect together. I thought she was being a little pushy and being set up was too awkward. But she convinced me to go to his room (only one floor up from ours!). She stayed 10 or 15 minutes, then conveniently remembered she had to go do something vague. We ended up watching a movie and staying up talking until around 2 am. I call it our first date, even though it wasn’t really a date, per se. By Christmas break, we were inseparable and didn’t know how we’d survive 3 weeks apart.

A year and a half later, over summer break, he blindfolded me and drove me to campus (telling me we were going somewhere else and taking a roundabout route), then led me to a bench and proposed. We got married the next year, two weeks after I graduated from college, on May 18th, 2007.

I can't believe I almost didn't go meet this guy.
