I Met My Boyfriend At A College House Party And It's The Best Relationship I've Ever Had

Your love story doesn't have to be crazy romantic for you to be crazy about each other.

I Met My Boyfriend At A College House Party And It's The Best Relationship I've Ever Had
Tessa Lebo

I transferred to Ball State in the middle of my freshmen year from Indiana State, and I moved in with my sister. I didn't really know anyone else at all, so I would always follow her around to whatever party she was going to.

Just after a month of being here, we got invited to a party from one of her friends. I wasn't even sure if I wanted to go because it was noon and I wasn't ready at all, but I decided to throw a hat on and make a mix drink.

It was an oddly nice, warm day in January. We got to the house and I only recognized one person I knew, and besides that I just followed my sister around or I just stood there not talking to anyone.

But I didn't get to stand there alone for too long because a guy came up to me and started asking me about me myself.

We talked for about the whole party. He had a familiar feeling about him so it wasn't hard at all to keep a conversation going. I felt like I knew him, but I was sure we had never met before.

But then he found out I went to Ivy Tech and basically roasted me the whole time for that the rest of the party. And then moments later he won flippy cup and insisted on standing on the table to show that he was the champion lol.

Once the party ended, my sister and I went back to the apartment and made noodles.

And that was it. That was how I met my future boyfriend of two years and three months now. Just at some little house party.

My point is, you don't need some crazy, magical, "love at first sight" love story for your relationship to be crazy, head over heels for each other. It might not have been love at first sight, but once we started dating it has been everything I could hope for.

I met my boyfriend at a college house party and it is the best relationship I have ever had.

I didn't know that that day back then would end up being the day I remember for the rest of my life, as the iconic first time we met story, and I wouldn't change it even if I had the chance.

I can't imagine if I decided not to go that day or if he didn't come up and talk to me. If we just kept missing each other or if he didn't think I was good enough.

But that's all impossible. None of those things could have happened because we were meant to be together.

The day we met just felt like any other day, but I think that's when the most amazing things happen in your life. On days where you least expect it.

It might not sound like a fairytale, but it is my favorite love story of all time because it is mine. Ours.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
