Part of My Love Story:
Personal Photo
In the 7th
grade a boy sat behind me. I had seen him before. He was in my math class in 6th
grade and he always sneezed at least 3 times a class. I was the only one who
would say bless you. Then he would say some silly remark like, ”Amen!” or “Hallelujah!”
Now this boy is sitting behind me in the 7th-grade history class. There
was an assignment where we were put together to make a board game. I came up to
him and said “Hi, my name is Brittany.” I know now that “he couldn’t believe”
that I would come up and talk to him. As the year went on, we became friends. I
would block him from getting to his desk and I would come up with random passwords
in order for him to get to his seat. Little did I know that Sam was falling for
me and I had a boyfriend at the time. We also had reading writing workshop
together and we sat side by side there too. We spent every class period passing
notes. Sam was quickly becoming one of my best friends. I broke up with my boyfriend
because he wouldn’t talk to me (So middle school)… Then it was summer and my 2
best girlfriends were having a get-together but… they both had boyfriends
coming and as a recently single I decided to invite Sam. That night I fell in
love with him. My leg brushed up against his leg and I completely got butterflies.
I didn’t have the guts to tell him face to face how I felt. So, I texted him... He thought it was my friend being mean. Then, I called him so he would know it was actually me. We arranged for a movie date and he asked my mom if he could be my boyfriend. Then, he went and found me and in a store while I was immersed in shopping. He then asked me to be his girlfriend. He also told me that we were not allowed to be awkward. (Big deal for middle school relationship). It hasn't been awkward and it has been 7 years 10 months and 3 days, it has never been awkward, we are still madly in love, and he is still my best friend. He is the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me.
Hi Brittany! I really enjoyed reading your love story with Sam and it was incredible heartwarming. I liked that you started as friends and then got together later. My boyfriend and I started as friends too and we've been dating for 3 years now! I wish you and Sam the best in the future and I think it's inspiring that you guys have grown up together for 7 years! The picture of you two is adorable too!
