We met through a mutual friend when we were very young (15 and 16 to be exact)! We immediately liked each other and began facetiming everyday. We lived two hours away from each other and neither of us could drive. Sean paid a friend to drive him all the way to my house just so he could meet me for the first time. When we hugged for the first time, I knew I was home. Many people doubted that we would make it. I don't blame them. We were very young, busy, and only saw each other once a month. But when you know something is worth waiting for, you wait. It took three years until we could live in the same city. We started college together at Oregon State, and we both just graduated! After five and a half years together, with so much time apart, we are so ready for forever together.
