I Met This Girl 4 Years Ago


I met this girl 4 years ago, this day. It was a blind date and we met at the Barnes and Nobles at Union Square in Manhattan. I didn't have any idea what this girl would look like but was pleasantly surprised that she wasn't ugly (since the guy who set me up with her was known for practical jokes).
We had dinner at Lanza's Restaurant in the lower east side and then went out to this bar called Scratcher's afterward to meet with friends for drinks.
I spent most of the first date pretending I was either gay or married already. But surprisingly, she accepted my invitation for a second date, which happened months later after she got back from her trips to Amsterdam and California.
So today is our 4 year anniversary. I have to say I'm very happy. She is super cute and funny. And she's very goofy, which I find attractive, since I don't take myself too seriously either.
We moved in together earlier this year, and I can't complain as of yet. She miraculously is able to endure my vices, my endless time in front of the computer, and my SOCOM time. Actually, she sometimes partakes in the videogaming festivities (without her, I could not have completed "Shadow of the Colossus"), another atractive quality.
She likes ducks and bulldogs, she has a penchant for Coach bags, Tiffany jewelry, and knitting. She has a creative, artsy side which I sometimes find endearing, and other times, kooky. Her first name for me was, "dork." She cooks. She takes care of me. Three months into our relationship, I got real sick and had to go to the Emergency Room a couple times. All throughout that ordeal, she was by my side.
I met her 4 years ago this day and am thankful everyday that she still is here with me today, and I love her.

You pretended to be betrothed, not married. We didn't go to Scratcher's to meet friends, I brought mine along so I didn't have to be alone with you. And it was our third date, when I got back from Amsterdam. And we were together 3 weeks when you got sick. I love you too.
