On March 12th, I received an e-mail on match.com that said:
"Hi LA, I'm so glad you like fashion and super high heels because I wear mine like all the time. Lol jk. I just have a pair of asics I run in. :) So do you plan on staying in PA for long or do you have plans to ever go back home? Jeff"
After a handful of emails over the next few days, we decided to meet in person. On March 15th, we met at Champps Sports Grill in King Of Prussia.
I remember driving up and imagining 100 different possibilities for this night. Would you really look like your pictures, would you be obnoxiously funny (remember those silly pictures you had on your profile?!?), would I like you, would you like me, would it be awkward... and then as I pulled into the parking lot, I saw this guy walking towards the front door and pulling out his phone. At that moment, my phone rang. You were telling me you had just gotten there. I creeped by you in my car and somehow had the feeling that this was going to be a really amazing night.
That night, I laughed more than I thought possible on a first date, felt comfortable instantly, and we never had even a moment of awkward silence. Remember when I got up to go to the bathroom and the guys next to us at the bar asked if we were on our first date because we seemed to happy for it to be anything else?
And that was the beginning of our fairy tale...
