Romance

This may sound totally cheesy but I still feel all the romance and intimacy in my relationship with Mike that I felt from day 1.  Well over five years later I still get cute little reminders that I have the best man out there. Mike called me last night after work and did the cutest little "skit." The conversation went a little something like this:

"Hello."

"Hey Tanya, it's Mike from History class."

"Oh, hey.  Yeah I have seen you around."

"Yeah, so I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date with me this Friday."

"Um... sure."

"I was a little nervous in asking you but I needed to do it."

"Oh, well I would love to go out."

"Okay, well I can pick you up by 6, is that okay?"

"Yeah sure, I'll see you then."

"Alright, see you tomorrow in class."

Okay so many of you are probably thinking... that was lame. I, on the other hand, thought it was the cutest thing ever. I like Mike's lameness. He went out of his way to think of that scenario to ask me out this Friday.  Instead of just asking... What are we going to do this Friday, he puts his Mike touch on it.  I love how he can make me so overwhelmingly happy in twenty seconds.  Even after over five years we still have this strong connection romantically and emotionally.  This makes me think that we seriously are going to make it.  By make it... I mean get married eventually and lalala. I don't want to get ahead of myself but you have to think about it at some point.  If the five years of dedication and happiness isn't enough then I don't know what a great relationship needs.  I'm just plain and simply in love and have been for a long time.  I feel so lucky to have found my mate so early.  I always hear these stories of girls never finding the one and some of my friends get their hearts broken monthly but I don't have to deal with all that and I still have sparks in my own relationship.  I am 100% grateful.  I love you Mike.
