Setting The Record Straight
A couple of people have asked me how Ryan and I could go from being broken up to being engaged in such a short period of time. I don't think anyone is saying it to be hurtful, they just don't understand the quick turn around. If I was on the outside I'd probably say the same thing, but I'm on the inside so let me try to explain.
The first time I saw Ryan I was instantly attracted and not just to his good looks. From the beginning he's treated me with respect and concern. If I have a problem, he listens and if I need support, he's there. He knows my issues and instead of running from them, he attempts to understand and help.
I think both of us went into this whole relationship scared of being hurt and just waiting for when it turned bad. So we had what can't even really be considered an argument and instead of fighting for what we had, we both went running to protect ourselves. Luckily, we also had a couple of good friends who knew we did love each other and wouldn't be complete apart who made us get together and talk. Five minutes into our talk I knew I loved him and wouldn't let him go a second time. Truthfully I just wanted to attack him and be done with it.
It took us breaking apart to realize just how much we belonged together. I will admit if you'd asked me five minutes before Ryan proposed what my answer would've been, I would have said no. I truly thought I wasn't at a point emotionally where I could handle commiting myself to another person. But he got down on one knee and I saw my future and I wasn't willing to let it go. He already owned my heart, body and soul. Adding marriage into the mix isn't going to change that. And it's that simple. Without him, the fame and the money doesn't matter.
If you still don't understand, spend five minutes with us in the Playhouse and I'm sure everything will be clear. From what I hear, the two of us together are disgustingly cute. *grins*
