We met 6 years ago back in high school through his mom. She asked us both to work a fundraiser at the zoo together. We hit it off immediatey and dated for nearly a month. But we were at different schools and didnt get to spend much time together so we decided instead to just be friends. We kept in touch through the years and would meet up and visit everytime he came home. We realized one weekend when he was home a little over a year ago that our feelings had turned into something more. Ever since then things have been amazing! 

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
