Wheeler and I met at Texas A&M through a mutual friend who he brought to a date party that I had been invited to. After briefly talking that first night (mostly because I was too busy talking to all the girls I had just met oops), followed by two weeks of us BOTH ignoring each other on campus (because I didn't know if he remembered me, and he didn't know if I remembered him), we ended up in the same place at the same time again. After what we call "the REAL first time we met", we spent as much time getting to know each other before the semester ended and I went back to Dallas. After a summer of weekend dates in Dallas, we finally made things official when our fall semester started. 5 years of long distance later and we were in the same place at the same time again. This time was different because it wasn't just for a weekend or for winter break or a clinical rotation. This time, it was for forever <3
