Our Wedding

Dearest Friends and Family, If you are visiting this corner of our site then clearly you love relationship tea as much as I do. Becca has tasked me (John) with recording our young beginning. I hope I do it justice in the most entertaining way I can. Love and desire are fickle things. Common refrain expresses the same thought as "The Lord works in mysterious ways." That couldn't be more true for me because, well, the first time I saw Becca was from the top of her stairs. I was walking down with her roommate and Becca was just moving in to her new place. Her roommate and I were dating. *gasp* Listen.., it's certainly not what you think. I'd argue that the first time I really saw Becca wouldn't be till a year later in the summer of 2025. I was single then. Becca and I had recently reconnected through a social event, she was moving and needed help. Now, Dear Reader, I would be lying if I said my heart didn't do summersaults when she called and asked if I could bring over some tools. That was the start of my desire. Doing what any young man would in such a situation, I responded and dutifully sat on her floor assembling furniture with an impact driver. To this day, Becca swears I came over way too fast. Maybe I sped? When I got there, I met two beautiful people who I would shortly come to love, Becca's sweet parents. After building a bed and fixing a few other things, Becca's mother suggested that Becca owed me dinner for all the help. God Bless Mama Mathis!! (kindly thank her when you see her) As you well know, boys are clueless and I was no exception. I could never quite tell how Becca felt about the time we spent together. In my mind, the impending dinner would be the perfect litmus test. Surely, it would just be the two of use! Wrong, she also invited several friends. Before I could get too discouraged, though, she invited me to her birthday party where I was the only male present. I would later learn that lots of men were invited and weren't able to make it. Ignorance is bliss. At this point, I was sure we were basically a thing. All that remained was for me to ask her, right? Wrong again. I mean, I certainly should have chosen a better moment. Mile 2 of an 11 mile run is not the best place to broach sensitive topics. I asked anyway. I asked if we were going to see where things could go and date more seriously. Very sweetly, in her Becca way, I was relegated to the friendzone. I have to admit, I have skipped a lot of important material. To catch up its relevant you know that around that time, my and Becca's favorite activity was talking. Even now, we can talk for hours.. (Presently, that is. I could see favorites changing after June 26th) So, don't let Becca fool you. She seems quiet on the surface, but is a chatterbox. If you don't believe me just ask her what a plinth or wainscot is. You'll see. Anyway, during our discussions we always said that you could reserve the right to change your mind. It just smooths conversation and removes the pressure of expressing yourself right the first time. Well, coming back to the story, Becca and I kept seeing each other often after that run. One night, after watching a movie together, I dropped her off at home. We stood out front of her house. We were a little too close for a little too long. Boys can be clueless but not that clueless. So.., I asked if I was still in the friendzone. That's when Becca hit me with, I thought you said we reserved the right to change our minds? Then Becca and I shared our first kiss.
