Thanks guys!
As to the details...
I moved back to Colorado on July 13th of last year and wanted to get plugged into NA quickly. I made a meeting on that Saturday but I arrived early and there was one other person there. A gorgeous girl with red hair. We set up the meeting together and the whole time I was thinking 'Damn! I'm going to like Colorado Narcotics Anonymous!'. During the meeting I couldn't stop staring at her (kinda creepy, huh?)
Fast forward 2 months and we were dating and crazy about each other. Her and her 8 year old son moved in with me and we were extremely happy... at first.
I started working nd started feeling anxiety and depression. Insecurity set in and I started getting very dark thoughts. This affected her and, even worse, it affected her son. We broke up on November 20th (my birthday) and her nd her son moved out. I was heartbroken for a long time and wanted her back desperately.
We started dating again in February and I was hopeful but was willing to accept however it turned out. Since then we became best friends and her son and I developed a deep bond (I plan on adopting him after we marry)
We went very slow this time around and it was well worth it. She's amazing. Insanely intelligent, wise, caring, thoughtful and she knows me better than I know me.
I've never been in a relationship where my girlfriend was my best friend and it feels nice.
We plan on marrying in a year. I know it may be a long shot but I'm sending invitations to some of you TDSers (you can guess who you are) and nothing would make me happier if youse guys would be able to make it
Thanks again!
