This was prior to our first date, but still the best thing ever:
I met my b/f through a friend I used to work with. We met about a month before my birthday. About a week before my birthday (my birthday happened to fall on a Friday) I had told him my friends and I were planning to go to City Limits, a club in Raleigh, for my birthday. He told me that he had some friends coming into town the night of my birthday that he hadn't seen in a really long time. I told him it was cool and to spend the night with his friends, spring break was that following week, maybe we could get together then.
The night of my birthday, my friends and I are at City Limits and I start receiving these text messages from him asking me if I was there at the club, if I was having fun, what my plans were afterwards, etc. I had replied to him that I didn't know what plans were for afterwards. So...my friend who I met him through, she had driven us and we went out on the patio so she could make a phone call. We were out there 2 seconds...and she starts yelling his name and waving. I said to her "Why are you yelling his name? He's with his friends that are in town" and she replied, "no, he's here!" So I walked inside and there he was paying his cover to come in! I was sooooo surprised! NO ONE had ever done anything like this for me before! Best birthday present ever!
I didn't feel my phone vibrate for the last text message he sent me...when I replied to him asking where he was, his response: I'm at this place called City Limits.
Our first date was a few days later...we went to an Indian restaurant. I had never had Indian food before, but it was very relaxed (especially since we'd already been meeting up on campus and talking online for a month before hand).
Here we are today...a year and a half later still together
