I was always the super nerdy, super geeky girl. I never partied in high school or did anything I shouldn't have. I followed the rules and played by the book. I volunteered I had three jobs and I maintained a high GPA. But I always had my eyes on this one boy. He was cute, he was funny, he was charming, and he was nice. I never got the courage to talk to him because he was one of the cool kids. We couldn't have been more opposite in high school. He didn't really care that much for school, although he was still extremely smart. He partied all the time and dated girls that were way prettier and skinnier than me. I was so intimidated by this man but I knew that if I could just talk to him we would have a great connection. It wasn't until this past year that we found each other again. On tinder, swiping away I ran across his picture I immediately swiped right and almost peed my pants when I saw we matched. He messaged me immediately. We started off as just hooking up. I didn't want anything more than that but within about an hour of talking to him I fell hard. I was back to being that geeky high school girl with a crush on the cool kid in school. And now here we are. 24 and in love. We fell in love, got pregnant, and got engaged within 8 months of finding each other but it couldn't feel anymore natural.

He showed me this picture the other day. It was in our freshman yearbook. He showed it to me and told me that he was always staring at me when I wasn't looking, he was always listening to me, and laughing at me when I wasn't aware of it. He told me that no matter what I believed I was the most beautiful girl in the world. He told me how special I was and how hard it was for him to find an intelligent and independent woman to share his life with. He told me he loves me because I'm not who he wants me to be I'm just myself, my stubborn, sassy, funny, intelligent self. He thinks in beautiful not for how I look on the outside but who I am. He loves me for my crazy imperfect self and I could not be more thankful that I found him and that me and our beautiful baby girl are going to have him in our lives forever. ❤️
