Where I met my partner?
I met my partner at a trade school. I was never really out of the closet I had a few flings here and there, until I had gotten older. I was with a guy and had been for a few months when she came to the school. I will never forget when I first laid eyes on her. It was November 4th 2003. We became the best of friends.
How we fell in love
It first started when I would go snack shopping in her room.... just so I could see her. Trying to hide the feelings I had towards her in class, it just became more obvious. It was not until after graduation that I decided to do something about it. Many phone calls and letters later I finally asked her out September 8th 2004 it was a Friday. After doing a long distance relationship I finally took a trip to Southern Va to see her. After not seeing her for almost a year I was finally doing so... I had never been so excited. She was just as gorgeous as I had remembered. After a wonderful weekend spent with her it was very hard to leave. As soon as I got home I knew I had to be with her permanently. Years have passed and we just celebrated our five year anniversary, and are coming on our one year engagement. And just got our first apartment together Things are hard between my family and I about me being a lesbian. She is the best person that has come in to my life. I love you Jennifer Nicole
Advice
- No matter what your friends or family says it is about YOU. Be who you are and what you are. Being out of the closet has done so much for me.
