i went to talk to his world cultures classes about japan. we ate together in the cafeteria. the kids were super obvious/hilarious/not smooth. j. and i chatted and before i left he suggested i add him as a facebook friend b/c sometimes he had bbqs with his roommate and i might want to join them. i was intrigued-- this guy was cute and a good teacher. but i waited a few days [playing hard to get... or at least playing it cool...?!] before i added him. we messaged a couple times. two weeks later he asked me out to coffee. i thought the date was a lot of fun.
he left to paint in michigan for the summer. he didn't message me nearly enough for my liking, but i wasn't too devastated. we started going out once a weekend at the end of august. he never really announced that he liked me or said that we were dating. he just continued to show interest and pursued getting to know me. i feel like the time he made it obvious was when he invited me to that halloween party [taking me out in public is confirmation in my mind~]. and eventually he called himself my boyfriend so i knew for sure, haha.
this past weekend he told me that may 18th was the one year mark from when we met. he found it in his agenda book. last night we forgot to celebrate the milestone, but i remembered when i got home and grinned happily as i fell asleep. what a wild & crazy year it's been. i can't even imagine what's to come*
[he's so nice to put up with my ridiculous photo poses!]
