One of my girlfriends (ex-sorority sister, call her "Kay") had graduated and was working in the Chicago area and I was still in Bloomington with another girlfriend (another ex-sorority sister, call her "Jenn") and Kay invited me and Jenn up to spend New Year's Eve with her and some friends. Kay was dating this guy, we will call him "Jim"! Anyway, Jenn and I get up there and we meet up with Kay and Jim. Since I hadn't seen Kay in a while, I ask her about her relationship with Jim and she says they are coworkers and they aren't "together" but dating! So, the New Year's Eve festivities begin and we are all having a good time. Jim is nice, but seems shy. Later on, he was really rude to me! I'm not sure if it was the drinking, but he was kind of short and snotty to me! I just blew it off and stayed with Jenn most of the night.
The next morning, Jim takes us back to Kay's house and we all say our good-byes since I had to be back in Indiana the next day.
Well, Jenn graduates and also moves to the Chicago area, leaving me in Bloomington! It is now August and she invites me up to spend the weekend with her and Kay. The day before I head up there, Jenn sends me an email saying that Jim has been asking about me! I just about died when I read that! I thought he didn't like me at all! It had been the beginning of January when I last saw him so, now I am five kinds of freaking out! I get up there and hang out with the girls the first night and the second night, we meet Jim at a bar in the city. It was weird at first, but turned out to be cool! From that night on, we have been together ever since...it took about 8 months, but we got there! We will be celebrating our one year anniversay in early September!
