We are truly a love story straight from a fairy tale. We have a published poetry book, written together, full of reasons we are in love!

We met in undergraduate school and quickly became best friends. I knew I was going to be with him before he did. He overheard me talking to a friend about how I left an abusive relationship with no things, but I got my first apartment. I didn't even have a bed...I had to leave everything behind. The next day in class he brought me a rollout cushion to sleep on until I could get my own bed. He didn't even know my name yet, and he was already so caring.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We honestly have so many - but we got into a pretty serious argument (I don't even remember over what) within the first year of our relationship. We were on a road trip and ended up pulling over at this tree orchard that have a gift store just to calm down. While there, we both found a little trinket for each other secretly. While walking around the trees we exchanged trinkets - we both got the same one that said "breathe." All of the sudden everything was right again.
What would you do with $20,000?Our 10 year anniversary is this August! We'd use part of it to celebrate and the other portion would go towards a down payment on a house!!!
