Waterfall
A little over a year ago I posted a profile on Match.com. I only did it because a friend of mine, actually my roommate at the time, told me I really needed to meet someone. I just thought I would get a couple of comments or replys that I would read and delete after I read them. I never really believed I would actually find someone, let alone meet them and fall head of feet in love with them.
Two days later I logged on and found a reply from this cute girl going to college in Chicago. She had seen my profile and thought we had a lot in common. I checked out her profile and wrote back to her, never really thinking anything would come of it. Within a few days we had traded email addresses, screen names, and were writing each other long emails.
Like so many people, I had been hurt so many times. I was tired of falling for people that I couldn't have or that didn't want me back. To put it bluntly, I had given up on any chance of finding someone that would love me back.
Who knew that it would be the shy girl from Chicago...
Now, almost a year later, I wake up every morning next to the most amazing woman. I knew the first time I met her that I would spend the rest of my life with this woman. It was the most amazing thing - when I could feel all the pieces of my life come together and I felt so complete for the first time in my life.
Even now, I can't put it into words how I feel about her. She makes every day worth it for me and theres nothing better than knowing I will be going home at the end of the day to her. She is everything I could ever want and more.
Tomorrow, November 13th, we will be spending our one year anniversary at Niagara Falls. It's been an amazing year, I can tell you that. And I know there are plenty more to come.
