how we met
Brent and I met on my first day of work 2 1/2 years ago, and we met on my first day! We work at Taco Bell HQ in Irvine, in the same department, so we kept our relationship under wraps for quite a while so we could figure out if this was the real deal. (Spoiler alert: IT WAS)
I spent that first-day training at a desk, while this cutie of a man kept making any excuse to come up to my desk and chat. Later in the week, some of us wanted to rent bikes and ride to lunch. I wore jeans (with no pocket, AWFUL) and I couldn’t hold my phone or credit card. In my terrible attempt to flirt, I asked Brent if he would hold my belongings. After lunch, I took my phone but spaced on grabbing my credit card from him. He later used our communication tool at work, Skype, to IM me and strike up a convo. Major kudos to Brent! He then asked for my Snapchat ( which I instantly hated but I went with it cause Why not) and shortly after that texting began. I remember going on a date with someone, while Brent and I were just friends, and I actually faked food poisoning so I could go home and focus on texting him. Not ashamed…I just knew I was destined to get to know him. It was worth it because He asked me on a date that following weekend :)
From the moment I met him, he changed my life. We dated for 3 weeks before we moved in together. We got a dog this past January, it only makes sense that the ring came now! He is my other half and my best friend! How could I not say yes? The best part of this whole story? We had actually met on Bumble 2 weeks before I started at Taco Bell, but I had abruptly deleted the app because I didn’t want to end up matching with people from work. Logical right? We actually realized we had swiped right on each other almost 3 months into us dating. Too funny! The stars totally aligned- and sometimes we thank bumble….but we mostly thank Taco Bell :)
