It’s hard to find an exact point to start. One thing I know for sure is that God had a plan all along, through all the highs and lows, the waiting, the uncertainty. Every moment God delicately planned from the beginning, and we will never forget that.

Paige and I’s story is something that is uncommon, yet very special. From the very beginning I found Paige to be a great friend with incredible qualities. She intrigued me. She was charming, compassionate, and always kept you on your toes. Her sense of humor could lighten any room.

She and I were just friends at first, that’s right, I was friend zoned. I didn’t have feelings for her, at first. I just enjoyed being around her. I enjoyed how much fun she had and how she viewed life. A few years into our friendship, Paige faced some heartache which drew us closer. I saw her heart hurting and I could only grow to care more about it. Through this heart ache I was able to care for her and see a side of her heart I never would’ve imagined by just going on dates; this opened my eyes to who she truly was and gave me an ability to care for someone I was just friends with. After a while God, began working in some profound ways to get us to where we are today. I asked Paige to go to prom with me for my senior year, and by my luck she said yes, It was that night I truly caught a glimpse of what dating her would be like… Everyone had always said to me “Brandon, you like her” … “Brandon, you have feelings for her!” But I had never seen it until that night.

From then on, I realized 2 things. 1. I could no longer just be friends with her 2. I had to figure out how to marry her. So, I started doing everything I could to show her I didn't belong in the friendzone. From spending all my money to take her on what I allowed her to call “friend dates”, to driving to Alabama after my graduation to some hot air balloon festival with a half running car. I chased her because I knew eventually, she would get tired. And I got to say, she ran a lot longer than I thought she would…but that was okay because I saw it as marathon training because my goal was to be able to run a lifetime with her.

Her side of the story was probably worded a little bit different. To make a long story short, there’s now a ring on her finger, so it turns out nice guys don't always finish last!
