I met my hub's in high school, we didn't hardly know each other. All my friends thought he was so cute, so the only reason I'd ever talk to him was to see if he liked one of my friends or was going to ask them to a school dance. That was the extent of our relationship. Never dated, never really hung out.
He went on a mission for our church, and my friend (who liked him) was way to scared to write him a letter. (teenage girls? drove me nuts then, drive me nuts now :]) Anyway, she talked me into writing him a letter, for her. The letter basically said "my 'friend' says hi, she will miss you and to please write her when you can." Well, guess what? He wrote ME back. I didn't want to hurt his feelings, so I wrote him back again...the rest is history. Luckily my friend liked a couple different boys, so it worked out for her just fine :]
Neither my hub's or I really like pictures taken of us...so that part of our wedding day was a nightmare for both of us ;] We were just happy to get the day over and done with. Not romantic, I know...but that's just us!
If you're wanting a romantic ending...he asked me to marry him on a beautiful California beach.
Happy times...

Funny how things work out. I think the story is sweet, it seems y'all were meant to be but had it not been for your friend you may have never taken the chance.
