Rachel over at Life of A Sweetaholic has recently been doing a ten day boyfriend challenge, which I said before I went on holiday that I would do. However, since I cannot promise to post every day due to work issues, and pregnancy appointments, I am going to do it all in one go here! I have taken a look at the Tumblr page where Rachel finds her challenges, and I will certainly be doing some, but they will probably be as whole posts, rather than a daily thing, as I don’t want to make a promise I cannot keep.
Feel free to post this challenge yourself, but please make sure you link back to Rachel, thank you 🙂
Where did you meet your boyfriend?
This is a strange story. I worked in both my local shop and my local pub, and Steve worked in the pub next door, so we kind of knew each other through the pub trade. However, we became friends on a street corner… Don’t laugh, its not what you think! I was chatting to my friends Gaynor and Kirsty at the end of my road, and Steve was walking down to work. He stopped to chat to us, and before we knew it, an hour had gone by. After that, we would always make the time to stop and chat in the street, or if we were drinking in the pub the other worked in. The night we got together however, it was a Friday night (our busiest night) and I was working.
My boss had the night off, and being a friend of Steves, was sitting with him. Steve asked to buy me a drink, and I said no.. this is because I was working. My boss, however, decided it would be fine for me to drink behind the bar, because I was getting fed up with my colleagues who seemed unable to complete the easiest of tasks! Fast forward to the end of the night and I was slightly tipsy (the band playing were awful, so the bar staff had a few more drinks to make them sound better!!) and my friend who was meant to be walking me home had disappeared! Steve offered to walk me home, and when we got to my door, he kissed me. We spent every day together after that, however, being the bitch I am, I did break up with him twice, and I have no idea why now :S – Just being melodramatic, perhaps.

Steve,
Simply put, I love you. Thank you for being there through some of the darkest times of my life, and coming through them with me. You will be a wonderful father, and I can’t wait for our little one to be born, just so I can see you happy, smily and playing games with him or her. You’ll be amazing.
Thank you.
