How We Met




How we met could be a number of different ways , so I'm not 100% sure how we met. So I'll list the different ways it could have happened , and go from there. 

1) Our ward for church divided our FHE ( Family Home Evening) groups up depending on what apartment building you're in. His apartment and mine happened to be in the same group. I only was able to go one time , and that was the time when he asked every girl in the group on a date. Every girl said no.( poor guy) I would've gone , but I had work and I couldn't get out of it :( 

2) The broccoli incident. This happened when he found out my roommate is terrified of broccoli. He had some that he didn't want and decided to leave it on our doorstep to freak my roommates out. That broccoli stayed on the porch for a week without him telling us it was his before I decided ( was nominated) to move it since it turns out I'm the only one not afraid of broccoli. 

3) He came over to our apartment and said " hi I'm Gregg. Ginny told me I could borrow string cheese. After confirming this with my best friend and roommate Ginny , I invited him in and got him some string cheese. He stayed and talked to me and offered me a ride to work. 

Here's where it gets good. The day he offered me a ride to work was also the day I was going on a group date with all my roommates and some other people with another guy I had a crush on. So he drives me to work. Locks me in his car. I playfully flirt with him ( hey he was cute. Give me a break.) and head into work after convincing him he should let me out of his car. 

Well as it turns out. My roommate Jamie , invited him to be her date to this activity last minute. Turns off that Gregg and I hit it off better with each other than we did with our own dates. So after flirting with him on the date ( oh my goodness what a story) he leaves and I'm smitten. I seriously can't stop thinking about him so the next Monday I convinced my roommates that we needed to have our own FHE and invite Gregg to come. He says yes. After that he asks me on what could have been and I now count as our first date. 

We were trying to look for a hamburger place he loved.  Sammy's. Which , ironically , is now on the same street we live on now. He got lost though so I spent the entire evening making fun of him and finally offered to make him a freaking cheeseburger since he was so dead set on having one. We went back to my apartment where I proceeded to make him " the best cheeseburger I've ever had." His words. Not mine.

After that it's pretty much history. We spent every moment we could together after that. We still laugh about the time we went on our first date and he got us lost. So however we met , it all led up to one eventful day , where a cheeseburger sealed our fate. We wouldn't have it any other way and still bond the best over delicious food.
