Fortunately, the story I am about to tell does not end at all in the way the song does
Mr Elk is a computer engineer who I met during orientation week of our freshman year at college. He was quiet and shy, and a huge nerd (goes well with me, seeing as I just introduced myself as a nerd too!). We met during one of the few orientation events he actually attended- one of those awkward ice breaker games (ugh!). Anyway, after that I noticed him in his room a lot and had to pass his room on the way to mine. I was intrigued by him! So one night, while returning to our hall slightly inebriated, I decided to enter his room and find out more about this mysterious man. Although I was annoying, I somehow got to him and we became fast friends. I found myself spending every free moment I had talking to him. It took three months for our friendship to turn romantic, and we have been together ever since. I can honestly say that I never thought I would be marrying Mr Elk when I was a freshman in college! But we have grown together as a couple and as individuals- and I can’t imagine my life without him.

Did you you know you were going to marry your SO from the start, or did it take a while?
