I met mine while cashiering at Burger King! It was the year right after high school, my first job, had been there a year.
Reggie came in with his friend and came up to order. His FRIEND wanted to date me but I took one look at his friend and said 'no thanks, not my type.' Reggie then said 'why don't you give me your number then' And I was so turned off by that! I was like NO! Are you kidding me?!? So they got their food, ate inside and left.
Fast forward 3 mths I was working and Reggie ordered food at the drive thru. When he came to the second window, I noticed him right away (but it was b/c he was blasting his music) and my friend who gave him the order said 'oh wow he's cute!' Next thing I knew he drove around, parked and came in. He had his little kangol hat on and his hip hop attire (a big turn off!) and he asked me if I remembered him. I did but I told him NO. He said 'Remember when...' and helped me 'recall' the other time. I was like okay....and he asked me for my number again, this time I went ahead and gave it to him b/c my friend thought he was cute! I didn't like him at first b/c I thought he was cheap and illiterate (I have no clue why I thought that) he talked with that hip hop slang, (THAT'S probably why lol), he was all into his car, he wrote how he talked...but he started to grow on me over time.
After that he started showing up at my job to say hello, offered to take me home, took me different places like Canada and all these other cool places...and one time (I found out AFTER we married) he followed me when I was with my friends w/o me knowing b/c he wanted to see how I acted outside of work. We started hanging out more as friends first..and he was very polite with my friends. He introduced me to his friends....and after a while my parents LOVED him We dated for 3 years before we got married.
Will be married 11yrs March 27th and have 3 children! Total of 14yrs together. ;o) He stopped all that hip hop stuff shortly after we started dating....and he actually writes a LOT better than me now. lol
