#hubby lore

But how did you and your hubby meet?

oh no worries bb!

hubby and i met when i was 20, working part-time at Target. we were coworkers — i worked the fitting room and he worked in the back, but for whatever reason Target had kept all the walkie talkies at my desk. so every day, he'd swing by to grab his walkie or swap out batteries. i saw him in passing despite us working different departments.

one day, we were the only two in the break room. and mind you, it's a massive break room. this was a big Target. anyways, i had my headphones on, listening to music, and this guy chooses to plop into the seat RIGHT next to me (i remember thinking, dude wtf. i don't even know you and i have headphones in. leave me tf alone. LOL)

he was very much like a golden retriever, trying to strike conversation. he was eating cookies for his lunch (ofc bc my husband has the biggest sweet tooth) — and he offered me one. apparently, he says that i gave him the BIGGEST resting bitch face that day 🤭 ahaha. but to be fair, i’d just gotten out of a really bad relationship and was very much not in the mood for men.

despite that, i took the cookie.

he asked what music i was listening to. turns out we had similar taste — and both played guitar — so that kinda broke the ice. we chatted the rest of my lunch, and then later that day when he came to return his walkie at the end of his shift, he asked for my number.

we started off as friends. he'd always pick me up, and we’d hang out and play music together. when he'd drop me off back home, it was hard for me to leave — we literally would sit in his car until like, 3am just chatting for HOURS.

i had a massive crush on him, but he was giving me major mixed signals. turns out, he was fresh out of a long-term relationship where he’d been cheated on. (he later admitted he was fighting himself — said i made it really hard not to want to date me 🙂‍↕️)

we stayed just friends for over a year until one night he crashed at my place (on the floor, he insisted), and the next morning, we both had work. his shift started an hour before mine, and right before he left, he randomly kissed me. then LEFT. like sir???🧍‍♀️ you just kissed me and dipped?? i was so confused bc i didn't know what that kiss meant to him. he acted so nonchalant about it.

thankfully, he didn’t leave me wondering long — that night, he waited for me to get off work, walked me to my car, and confessed he was in love with me. asked me to be his girlfriend right there in the parking lot.

MASHALLAH

would love to listen to u yapping about ur married life😭😭😭😭(PLEASEDONTTAKETHISWEIRDLY)

awww tysm 💕 honestly idk what to even yap about HAHA. you’re welcome to send anything you’re curious about tho!? i’ll just go ahead and expand a bit more on my last post. that way you guys can understand how confused i was the day he kissed me. (this man has no shame — lemme explain...)

bc he slept on the floor that night prior, he actually woke up with a kink in his neck. so, i offered to give him a shoulder massage. i was sitting on the edge of my bed, and he was cross-legged on the floor between my knees, head tilted forward while i worked my thumbs into his shoulders. (a very intimate little moment for two... "friends" 🙂‍↕️)

when i finished, i kind of awkwardly asked, “feel better?” and he murmured, “yeah, thanks...” then tilted his head back to look up at me. thats when he leaned in from below and kissed me. spiderman-style. upside-down.

it didn't take long for him to shift his body, and then we were getting into the kiss. we made out for a bit, but then he pulls back. doesn't address ANYTHING. no. just looks down at his phone and goes.

“shit, i gotta get ready for work. hey, can i use your shower before my shift?”

i’m like, “uh… yeah, of course?”

he says, “wanna sit outside the shower and talk to me while i shower?”

and again i’m like “oh, uh??? sure ???”

so i wait for him to undress. the water starts. he's behind the curtain. i step into the bathroom and sit on the counter, and we’re just chatting. i was waiting for him to maybe say something about him kissing me. but no. ofc we're totally NOT addressing the elephant in the room -- like we didn’t just make out minutes ago.

so, when he turned off the water i expected him to grab the towel and wrap himself up before he pulled back the curtain. but no. THIS MAN 🫠 he pulls back the curtain and STANDS there. fully naked. COMPLETELY UNBOTHERED. just CASUALLY talking to me about something random. istg he was ranting about something, i don't even know what though bc my brain was making the aol dial up sound while all i could focus on was his dick 😭😭😭😭

bruh i was crashing out in my head. i'm like, WTF. THIS MORNING IS A FEVER DREAM 😭😭 i'm over here staring at my best friends dick like its no biggie ahahahaha. and it wasn't even in a sexual way here, he's just so comfortable rn on a tangent. LOL.

he gets dressed. i walk him to his car. he kisses me goodbye, says i'll see you at work, and that's IT. i'm like... what are we rn??? are we doing fwb?? bc i was not about that. and he was already giving me mixed signals so this just confused me even more. like, he'd make comments and be flirty. but then turn around and say "don't take that the wrong way."

i remember being so nervous at work that day. but i was SO pleasantly surprised when he stayed after his shift and waited for me to get off. AND, he was so cute when he confessed 🥹 he even stuttered a bit and kept apologizing, saying he was so nervous and didn't wanna fuck things up. and i had never seen him like that. bc he's so confident (clearly by the way he flashed me his dick with no shame, lmao. istg he's so gojo coded sometimes i cant 🙄).
