My 100th Post | A Friendship Worth Dating For.

i know. i can’t believe it either.

after talking about it a lot. we decided to kind of let everyone know at the same to avoid all the questions and honestly just changing the relationship status on facebook seems too impersonal.  both of us are pretty privet when it comes to facebook and we just didn’t want to make it all public until we decided that this could work out. we have a really close group a friends and the last thing we wanted was to create some kind of uncomfortable vibe.

so here it is!

ryan and I have been friends for years. ryan has this crazy addiction with reality tv and a couple months ago (well… more like last summer) he came over and we started watching the bachelor (I know… I’m ashamed to admit this) he needed a place to watch his show because the house he was staying in didn’t have a tv. he started coming over multiple times a week to watch different tv shows, and i found myself getting hooked too. We watch everything from the bachelor to survivor, even nashville on occasion. (I think he has girlier taste in tv than I do..)

but….

what I didn’t realize because lets face it, i’m a little oblivious to things…. ryan was using his tv addiction as an excuse to hang out with me more than normal. my roommate tara started mentioned that ryan sure had been coming around a lot. i just laughed and denied it because we had this running joke that if we’re 35 and single we were going to get married on a farm in north dakota.. I guess it just started growing from there.  We started texting more, he would come over and we’d go for a run, ryan even got a camera for christmas and we would go on little adventures so i could show him how to use it.

from there the idea of us kind of grew on me. i was still a little bit in denial but i enjoyed the time with him. About a month ago ryan approached the subject after we watched survivor one night, and i’ll admit i was awkward… okay… A LOT AWKWARD! after a lot of awkward laughs, we kind of decided we wanted to take our friendship further. i was a little worried that it wouldn’t work out, and that it would mess up our friendship of 4 years. That’s why we were hesitant to tell our friends.

here were are a month in and things are going pretty good. I think its funny that I never dated anyone my whole time in college, but ryan has been such a good friend since I met him sophomore year. Its funny how things work work out when I least expect it.
