Letter Project - Day Two - Letter to your "Crush"

Crush seems like such a childish word, but maybe thats how good things happen-by being somewhat childish. About a month ago my family and I were driving home from Tennesee, and my dad says to me, "I gotta summer intern that aint got no girlfriend." You have to know my dad to realize how ammusing that statement was. In my head Im thinking "Oh lord...he's probably such a redneck or a geek or ugly, and wow...my DAD is setting me up. WHAT has my life come to?!" But I proceeded to ask about a million questions until my dad says "Michelle, if he wasn't a good guy do you think I'd be telling you about him? Just find him on that website you and momma are always on." Haha. So I did. I looked him up. We started talking. The first thing he said to me was about how I needed to trade in my Tennessee orange for some Kentucky blue. He obviously had no idea who he was talking to. But from there we started talking everyday. Then we hung out. I wont lie...at first it was just...akward. But I gave it another chance. Thank goodness. Now I can admit that I have a big crush on him...as lame as that sounds. But I like lame. We are dating now, and I think maybe the key to making a relationship work is trying your hardest to never lose that original "crush" feeling when it all began.
