Maddie's Perspective (I totally made the first move)

We always joke that we knew the first moment we saw each other, we knew it was meant to be. We met at the Wareham YMCA where Tony thought I was dating Austin since we used to workout together LOL. One day when I got to the gym, Tony was doing shoulders and I started my leg workout... moments later Tony was doing calf raises next to me and we sparked a conversation. Talk about butterflies galore!! Then he disappeared for two weeks to do some ninja training for the military and won a million awards (obviously, he's amazing). I remember telling Kenny that I scared the really cute guy away from the gym. I would go at 5PM everyday (since thats when I used to see him) and for two weeks he was GONE! Then, one a Friday he reappeared and I was like OMG! That day chatted at the gym again and I kept my cool, acting like I didn't notice he was gone (duh). He mentioned his birthday was that upcoming Monday and we made plans even though we didn't have each others numbers. When I got home I was like oh, that was dumb we don't have each others number so I searched him on Facebook. Silly me was searching "Tony" not "Anthony," whoops. Once I searched Anthony he popped right up! I was so nervous, I showed Kenny as he was working on the boat and I was like this is the guy I've been talking about! Kenny goes, "well are you gonna friend request him?" and I was like omg no how creepy.... well guess who did it for me... thanks Kenny! Tony liked a picture on my Facebook, then I liked his, you know that corny way people do, then I sent him a message.... the rest is history! This story still gives me butterflies, crazy to think the Wareham YMCA was where this love of ours began.

Q + A coming soon!
