FH and I met in Spring 2006 at an Argentine Tango class in Santa Cruz, CA. We were introduced by FH's Spanish teacher and were asked to be in a small Tango performance in March 2007. We said we didn't know how to dance that well, but if she was willing to teach us we would do it. We ended up not seeing each other again until we started rehearsals in Fall 2006. By the time the show came around we had crushes on each other... our first kiss was the night of the show. We've been dating and dancing together as a teaching and performance couple ever since. I'm finished with school and started my career as a scientist while FH is still finishing school and doesn't have a super steady/well paying job right now. We're waiting on getting "officially" engaged until we both feel financially stable and can start seriously saving for a wedding and a house. We've had the "I like this or don't like that" type of ring discussion and we talk about options for time of year, number of guests, my BM and MOH and his BM and GM all that stuff. We just know we're not yet financially ready to actually get married. He also doesn't want to rush and end up getting me a "little" ring.... even though I've told him I'd be happy with twisted up tin-foil. I'm already saving for the wedding to get a head start on things so that when he does propose we'll have a solid base to work from. He's my best friend, my love, my dance partner and my partner in crime (aka all things fun and silly). I can't imagine my life without him.
