So I am beginning my new journey by starting a blog about Robbie and I. This blog is for us to share with you our new journey together, and answer any questions that you all maybe wondering about now and in the future.
I want to start the first blog off with how Robbie and I met. Some of you may know this but Robbie is actually one of my roommates (from college)cousin. So that will help with the story I am about to tell.
So it was May 6, 2011 and Amber Lyman (now Amber Shaw)was asked on a blind date and she asked me to go with because she didn't want to go alone. So I reluctantly "decided" to go. The date ended up being really bad. The two guys had no plan and we ended up watching a movie I had already seen a bunch of times and then playing card games that they had no idea how to play. As we were in the middle of the card games we heard a knock on the door. It was Robbie and his best friend Justin coming to see what Stephanie (his cousin) and roommates were up to. They ended up staying and playing games with us for a while. I will admit this, I thought Robbie was the cutest guy I had seen in a long time.I guess you could say I was smitten from the very first moment we met... As we moved onto different games he made me laugh so much. I was so entertained by his expressions and the wway he handled certain situations.
As the night went on everyone left and Stephanie took Robbie home. Amber started going on about how cute he was and I just said Dibs out load! She got a little upset and was like no I wanted dibs.. I did it as a joke, never really thinking that anything would come of it. If anything I have learned is watch what you call dibs on ;)... Well the next day I got a friend request on Facebook, from him, and told everyone hey he sent me a friend request. Then Erika (my other roommate) said "Shanel we all got friend request"... So I kind of lost hope at that point. As the week went on he started chatting with me on Facebook and I had to go so I just gave him my number and signed off. A little straight forward.. I think yes.. I was just sick of guys taking forever to get my number, so I thought I would make it a little easier on him. Well through out the month he would come out with us and go and do things then it started just being him and I just hanging out and so of course we ended up dating...
Funny story though.. April 21, 2011 Robbie and I went out for ice cream at Mill Hollow and as we walked back to my apartment he asked me how I felt about him and I.. I told him that I liked the idea of him and I. However after that I didn't know what he meant by it so when I took him home that night I asked him what he meant by that comment and if we were boyfriend/girlfriend? He then went on to say that we should give it a week and decide whether we still wanted to exclusively date.. I thought that was a little weird but went with it! Haha he has definitely taught me patience. Well all through that week he would text me "I cant wait for you to be my girlfriend" and in my head I was thinking well just ask me... haha So finally on May 27, 2011 we became official. Robbie as soon as he could was chatting on Facebook with Stephanie (his cousin) trying to figure out how to change his relationship status.. I thought it was cute! Ever since I have be smitten and crazy about this Guy! He is on in million and I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to be apart of his family! He is the love of my life and I look forward to spend eternity with him by my side.
