A Squared's Story

Our story is one of trusting in God's perfect timing and believing in His perfect plan for our lives.  Adam has been one of my best friends for almost 10 years.  Over those years we laughed A LOT, I cried A LOT, and we've been through it all together.  A mutual friend from college introduced us thinking we'd be perfect for each other.  At that time though the distance and my immaturity lead us to only be friends.  Time marched on.  Life got in the way of seeing each other on a regular basis, but our friendship stayed alive via aim and e-mails.  He listened when I needed an ear through all that I went through.  He waited, he says patiently, for me to grieve and learn to live again. This is where God stepped in, with a little help from my friends.  I wasn't interested in a relationship. I felt as if I needed to wait just a little longer, wait until 2010 arrived and then be open to whatever God had for the next stage of my life. On New Years Day we were sitting at our computers chatting and watching a football game together when he asked me when I was coming to see his new house.  I of course said I would have to look at my calendar and get back to him. We got serious talking about everything we'd been through over the years. At some point it was as if the veil that had been over my eyes all these years was lifted.  I realized all the things I had listed in counseling and to my friends had been there all along.  I of course freaked, said nothing to him and called Sarah.  :)  After some prayer and pushing from talks with friends I decided to go see his new house.  The rest is history, I just wish someone had told me how fun it was to fall in love with your best friend. :)
