J and I met at the beginning of high school. We attended the same church and were both involved in the music program at our high school. We were friends throughout high school and even attended the junior prom together.
In January of our senior year we went on our first date. We had a great time spending time together and got along really well. We dated the rest of the year and had an awesome summer. Just before leaving for college, we decided it would be best to "see other people" since we were attending different colleges. We headed our separate ways but planned to stay in touch. We talked frequently online and mailed letters back and forth. In March of our freshman year we decided to officially get "back together."
