From enemies to lovers, our lives are forever changed. Going into college I had my love life meticulously planned out. I knew I would meet a guy freshmen year that I liked, start dating him sophomore year, get engaged senior year, and get married right after college.

The first time I met Tyler we were playing Monopoly wayyy too late into the night and he called me a "Witch" for making bad deals! That made me decide to loathe him for the rest of my life. But thankfully God stepped in.

My memory of Tyler was wiped and I met him for the first time (again) a couple of months later. Something about this boy intrigued me. His numerous stories and unpredictable joking personality hooked me and by the time I connected the dots, the monopoly memory was not strong enough to overcome my affection for him.

When he asked me on a date, I just saw him as a friend, but I gave God a chance to change my heart, and boy am I glad I did that! By our 5 month anniversary, I could clearly picture a life with Tyler. And by our 8-month anniversary, I couldn't picture a life without him!

Tyler has been the biggest blessing in my life ever since, and I am so excited to stand by his side. We get to forever run toward God together and be continually surprised by the Christ-like people we become.

Around the start of my second college semester, my friends started hearing rumors of a girl. They heard that she was a strong Christian, funny, pretty, and most importantly that she played video games. As I got to know her more I told my friends there were two choices, she was the girl made for me or she was the girl made to distract me.

After seeking wise counsel from my Dad I decided that the former was true and asked her on a date. After a very long and nervous 2 hours of waiting, I got my response, and she said yes. 3 dates later she was officially my girlfriend.

The longer I knew her the more I realized that I think spending my life with her would be a very very good move. Soon I realized that I loved her. Everything that happens after stems from this realization. All the leadup, all the future highs and lows, peaks and valleys, comes from this I love you.

So I'm not marrying a pretty girl, or a girl who plays games, or one who makes me laugh, or one who is kind. While all those things are true, that's not who I'm marrying.

She could turn ugly, or swear off games, become boring, and turn into a bully. I'd still marry her because I'm marrying the woman I love.
