Dan and I met in 2011 through our jobs. I was a pseudo-manager for a drugstore (still an) and he worked for Redbull at the time as salesperson. In FL, the salesperson also makes their own deliveries. Well his first time at my store, he rang the doorbell so many times that by the time I could actually answer it’s and let’s him, I was pissed. We have a note posted saying that to only ring it once and be patient because we’re probably with customers. So I fling the door open and start ripping him a new one. From that day on, he always tried to deliver when I was there and we talked/flirted for six months before we both got around to asking the other person out.
Dated a couple of times then went our separate ways. I had any first serious relationship after that which resulted in my adorable son but found out that the relationship had pretty much been a joke. The guy had cheated on me the entire time with multiple women.
Dan and I had always stayed friends over the years and would talk occasionally. He hinted at reconnecting but I wasn’t ready too. Then he got into a serious relationship and even got engaged to the girl. Only to find out she’d been cheating on him. So he broke off the engagement and kicked her out of the house they had just rented together.
Naturally we started talking again and eventually hooked up and from there, dating. I told him one day that I was not a rebound girl and wanted something serious. He was of course nervous and unsure but said he didn’t want to lose me. I told him I wasn’t sticking around while he rebounded and couldn’t promise I’d be there when he wanted a real relationship.
Needless to say, we got serious. Moved in together. He proposed February 2016 at the fair while we were riding the Ferris wheel. I said yes and we eventually moved to Michigan and now we have a daughter together.
He drives me fucking nuts and we fight sometimes (a lot actually lol) but he always makes me laugh and tells me I’m beautiful even when I look and feel like I’m at my worst.
No idea when we’ll get married, not in a rush to right now.
