Not sure if I have ever really posted about Evan on here? But here he is! We first met back in 2011 when I started at The Henry Ford Museum. He was with his ex then and I was with mine so nothing was thought of at the time. I actually thought he was a bit of a jerk then! I tell him that now and he says “well I was because I was so unhappy” haha so we always joke about how I didn’t like him then. It wasn’t until 2013 that we started to actually hang out in our group of friends. And then 2014 we became actually close friends. I remember everything. We started texting all the time when I was on spring break in Gatlinburg in March 2014. We would be up late texting until 2 or 3am. (Now he passes out at like 10pm haha) At this point we were still just friends and not even thinking of a relationship. Later that year is when we started to realize there are more feelings there. He first kissed me in October 2014. We were at our friend Henry’s house for our usually weekend hang out and just drink tand talk. He pulled me to the side (drunk) so he had to courage to tell me all this....he said “I really want to kiss you right now but I don’t want to mess anything up) then he just went for it! He texted me the next day that he remembered everything even though we were drunk and that he didn’t regret anything. Fast forward to January 2015, we are at a hotel party for our friend Cecil. (I know hotel party sounds so dumb and I think they are haha) Everyone is passing out. So he takes me into the bathroom to talk so we don’t wake anyone up. In there he tells me how he feels about me. He kissed me again. From then on we hung out a lot but still taking things really slow. We didn’t want to make things awkward since we were such good friends. People would always ask us what is taking so long to make it official. Evan would always say that he was waiting for the right moment. Then it came. April 14, 2015, while we were in my basement watching some of our shows he finally asked me to be his girlfriend. So when I say I am in love with my best friend. I really am. I think it helped so much that we were friends beforehand. There weren’t any surprises and I knew how he really way because he wasn’t putting on a front just because it was a new relationship. It is something I never saw coming but it has been the best thing to ever happen to me. I never thought I would have this type of relationship and have someone who I could do anything with and be around 24/7 and still miss them when they are gone for a day.  I never take any of it for granted that’s for sure!
