start of the story :)

I have neglected this blog since my life has been so busy. I apologize blog, just know that you are loved and often thought of. I will act upon that love more.

So here is what has happened recently.

On September 7 of this year I met a very amazing man that I had no idea would mean so much to me by this point.

His name is Dallas Robert Aguilar. I knew of him because I was on high school teams with his younger sister.

There I was at the institute opening social. I stood at the counter to get a drink, leaving my friends for a few moments. In those moments I heard a voice to see Dallas asking me if I was a Phelps. I didn't know what to say but I guess I wanted to tease a flirt a little so i told him I was not a Phelps. He stood there feeling stupid for a bit. Then i explained to him that i really was.

We talked for a few minutes this night. He was on my mind this weekend and has been there ever since. We started talking more and hung out and hit things off.

We started dating on September 23 when he invited me to his family gathering. We kissed that night and established that we were dating.

We have gone on many dates together. When I am with him I feel good and that everything is going to be okay. I love being with him. He is so funny and sweet.

Our relationship, though it is still a seed has not gone without it's struggles. We decided we need to take a step back since things were getting way serious way fast and some things that are supposed to happen in a relationship has not happened yet. I agreed with this but it was way hard for me to know that I might not mean as much to him as he does to me. But that step back was necessary.

We are still in the step back and things couldn't be better. Our relationship has much less pressure. We are more able to be ourselves and just enjoy each other's company. Things are so easy. I am so myself around him. He even knows about my hairy legs and he still likes me. how? I don't know but its great.

He is such an amazing man. I truly care for him and want him to be happy. He is so great to everyone he knows and shows people he cares. He is close to all of his family and gets along with them well. He is an example to me that I need in my life.

I am so thankful for him in my life. No one has ever meant this much to me. He makes me feel good and proud to be me. I never feel less when I am with him. He lets me know how he feels about me and is always honest even if it is hard to hear. He is just great.
