How I did it: I met my boyfriend by total chance one spring day, nearing the end of my freshman year of high school. He was a junior at the time and from the moment I met him, I felt oddly connected to him. I liked his sense of humor, his personality, his manners, everything...just everything combined. I had heard from a few of my friends that he liked me, heh, little did they know the feeling was quite mutual. Ahh, yes, but being me, I just nodded and said "That's cool." and went on with my daily life. So, my boyfriend and I (friend at the time) hung out, went to spring fests together, talked for hours on the phone...and not more than a week and a half later, he asked me out over the phone. A line I will never forget - "Erm...um...*cough*....ummm, hypothetically, if I asked you out, would you go out with me?" and I said yes, hypothetically I would...then came..."Oh! Um, so, uh, in reality, if I were to ask you out, would you go out with me?"...then I: Hahahaha, yes, yes I would.

Ever since then we've honestly been inseparable, in the best way possible. Not only is he my boyfriend, but he is by far the best friend I ever had.

Lessons & tips: Be yourself, and let love find you.
