From breakup to engaged, getting married in October 2026

The story

Always wanted to tell my story. October 2021 : Met SP at new job, we were inseparable! November 2021: We started dating and not long after he moved out of his family’s and in to my apartment since we were always together at home and work. ~Amazing dating period learned a lot and went through a lot of life events separately that we were there for each other for (sick/elderly grandparents/ family issues/ hard times/ growth/ in between jobs etc)~ FLASH FOWARD December 2022: We moved into OUR first apartment together it was so great and we still talk about that apartment to this day but this is where trouble started. Okay now when I tell you this man is an ANGELLL and loved me soooo dearly. Slowly he was working all the time and never wanted to come home…just hang with the boys after work closing. I admittedly was always negging him about vaping and video gaming late into the night and sleeepijg through the afternoon until his work shifts in the evenings (restaurant life 4pm-2am). He grew colder of me and started to feel like he needed to be alone to understand himself etc I agreed because I knew he was going though something genuinely and we both talked everyday for weeks about breaking up just talking through it and hoping we both grow and come back together etc etc both crying and really coming to terms.

October 2023: We broke up, I moved into my parents home and he moved into his buddy at works home. It was crickets the first month or so but we texted sparsely here and there mostly I miss you’s and let’s trust the process and gods plan.

January 2024: We texted from here and there but it pretttty cold still from him. His grandmother passed. I didn’t know this but he called and I didn’t answer because he’d be so just cold. When I found out I called back but still wasn’t much of anything ofc.

February 2024: ~APPLIED SATS, AFFIRMATIONS, SELF CONCEPT~

March 2024: We went on a date kinda to top golf and I could tell he was still just hurt by his grandmother passing and not understanding what he’s being challenged with in life at the time etc talking between us tappered again.

April 2024: Crickets and Started to feel like I should move on even thought I didn’t want to.

May 2024: His Birthday…it was a hard day for me but I didn’t text him. He was in another state at a music festival with his buddy. I had an overwhelming dramatic moment where I went outside to my backyard, fell to my knees and pleaded to God that if he was not the one to please take this pain away because I cannot take this anymore. I proceeded to beg God to please have mercy on me. 2 hours later I received a text from him. “Today doesn’t feel right without you.” “How did I get be up so wrong about this.” Blah blah take me back I want to work on us again EVERYTHING I HAD DREAMED OF! I literally had the zoomed in my front yard because I KNEW the gut feeling I’d had the moment we broke up and the wretch in my heart that we were always going to be.

-The 3 days festival is over and we texted/ft every day couldn’t wait for him to get home and us be together-

- JAIL: They get pulled over and go to jail in a random state county. He calls me at 2 am and says “This is my one call and I’m in jail etc”. I go to sleep. Wake up log on my laptop wfh at work and didn’t remember until 11am it was like a bad dream. I realize I’m the only one that knows so I take the day off from work and immediately start telling his family and I get to work talking to attorneys in that state, etc. trying to figure out his bail.

3 agonizing days go by, I put money on his books for canteen, I kept in touch with attorneys and his family, and many mannnny collect calls from county jail to ease his mind literally “I’m coming home to you.”

He gets out comes home but the charges they were facing really scared him and he wouldn’t know for months what would become not his future…our future.

A lot of my friends felt it was a sign to just leave the relationship alone but I saw it as a test…a test

June 2024: We started slow knew we we’re gonna be together and get back together, but he was dealing with major anxiety over the situation all while trying to put a relationship back together to say was one of the hardest times is an understatement. It wasn’t exactly the fairytale it was before that night in jail happened.

We worked through it all and I even did a lot of SATS/MANIFESTING to somehow get the charges dropped etc.

November 2025: He proposed and we got engaged. We worked through the hardest of times together and i was patient with my growth and the universe.

October 2026: We get married!! 🥰 We can’t wait!!!
