September 2011
Britt and I became quite close. We would work out together, go swimming or watch The Big Bang Theory. Sometimes after a hard day we would just watch a movie and he would just play with my hair and scratch my arm. That was always my favorite part. Unfortunately because it was so relaxing I would always fall asleep hahaha (I don't think he cared too much for this) And as much as he hated big events he always supported me with my potlucks, he even hosted potluck at his place!(you can imagine how uncomfortable this was for him).
He was pretty much my go-to guy. He would always just listen and never judge, and he would just make me laugh all the time. He was actually a very good support system when I was going through my heartbreak.
This was the same day he drove to the airport to pick me up :)
Can you believe I called him and told him, "I am flying home tomorrow I need to go home" and he just said "What time should I pick you up?!" That is just the type of man Britt is, always giving and always caring.
The summer was quickly coming to an end, and that only meant one thing... He was gonna leave for two years to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
A couple of weeks before he was leaving things took an interesting turn. Britt and I began growing closer and closer. One day it just happened. Suddenly we kissed!!! It felt unreal but it felt natural, normal as though it was meant to be... We began growing a lot as a couple. We would read our scriptures together and talk about a few more personal things. We began to see each other in a different light. For those of you who are dating or are married to their best friends you can relate to me right?!
So now its August and he is about to serve a mission for two years the following month!
This is Britt opening his Mission Call
So where is he serving? Samoa!! SUPER FAR right??!!!!! I kept thinking to myself "What the heck am I doing?!"But man did it feel good! It felt good to have someone reciprocate your feelings. To make you feel loved and protected!
But after much thought I broke it off. This was hard but I didn't want to become a distraction for him. However, I missed him dearly and after a few letters we decided I would wait for him. Now this is hard for many reasons!! 1st you always hear those stories where is just doesn't turn out well. Sadly the guy decides they are no longer a good fit and guess what?! the girl just lost two years of her life! Second, the distance. Man the distance is killer!!! I have to wait about a month to get a letter from him and usually its dated a few weeks prior to receiving the letter. 3rd and most important the loneliness. You see everyone and their bf and you begin to crave it. You begin to crave that romantic relationship with the opposite sex.
Yet things are good and he is one of the main reasons why I am making so many changes in my life.
Our love story is still developing but I do want to tell you something. Everyone deserves to be loved. If it seems things are just not working out then its simply because the time is not right! Timing is everything. Be patient and trusting of our Heavenly Father, he truly knows best.
This video is so cute!!!
