How I met my husband…

2010 World Cup final, is when I met him. A friend of mine was invited to view the world cup final at one of her guy friend’s place, we were bored, we had no plans so why not?

At this friend’s place while I was chilling on the coach, minding my own business, playing some PS2 with one of my girls a guy arrives, introduces himself to my friends and before he could say anything to me I somehow recognised his face. Well, I did what anyone who sees someone they think they’ve seen before would do, I said to him “You look very familiar, haven’t I seen you before?” And his obvious answer was, nope he didn’t think so. Those were my first words to him, and till this day he thinks I was hitting on him, like really (no really he looked familiar, maybe I did know him – from my future lol.

Well sometime during that night we chilled together, had a great chat – which we both don’t remember what it consisted of. He was working that night, transporting tourists who had come to our country for the world cup final. He said his good byes, yes we exchanged numbers he was very charming and polite and I was being ‘nice’ I didn’t want to disappoint a potential friend besides, we really clicked. He left and I stayed behind and had a big jol with my friends, he later called to ask how I’d be getting home and I being my forward self responded by saying uhmmm with you lol. He came back all the way from Sandton just to take me home, he’s very sweet and I had charmed his socks off haha.

We dropped off all my friends at their place and well, we took a nice drive to my place where we chilled outside the gate in his car for about 2 hours talking about, uhmmmm no idea but the conversation was so good, I did not want him to leave and so did he. After some time his phone rang, yep most good things do come to an end, he had to go pick up his people so he left.

We stayed in touch, as friends. We spoke a lot and even though I was in a good relationship I enjoyed my conversations with him more than I would with anyone else, thinking about it now as much I’d convinced myself that we were only friends, I was probably emotionally cheating on my then boyfriend with him.

Oh well, a couple of months later (in Jan 2011) we dated, then break-up lol (complicated story) he was told to never contact me again but somehow in the midst of all the drama we found each other again and promised to never ever let ago. That’s the story of how I met and got to jol with the Mr of my Mrs, my best friend, lover and number one supporter. Never have I ever met and dated such an amazing man, and one thing I love about being in a relationship with him, is how I can be no one but myself with him. He has stood by my side through the hardest times of my life. My own little angel on earth, God does really exist.

Below is a picture of the first day we met in July 2010 and below that one is a picture of the first trip we went on as an official couple in December 2011 :)
