On Saturday, July 14th 2012, my best friend
married the man of her dreams—her best friend, her lover, the future father of
her children, the person who will ALWAYS be able to reach whatever she needs on
the top shelf (he’s 6’ 7”), the one person she will always be able to count on
in good times and in bad. I had the
honor of being able to be a part of her special day as a bridesmaid and I am so
thankful for it J
Many, if not most, people reading this know what Tiffany and
I went through. If you didn’t know
either of us at the time, I talked about it in my very first post if you need a
background summary. Those six and a half
months were the worst months of my life.
I felt like a shell of the person I used to be, unhappy and angry. The turning point for both us had, actually,
nothing to do with me. Tiffany met Shane
J Meeting him was the
major turning point for her. She
realized that this is the type of guy she needed to be with…or exactly the guy
she needed to be with. She broke up with
Chris, which set in motion a gradual road to recovery for our friendship and
our very long overdue confrontation with Chris for both of us.
Without Shane, she and I would both still be miserable. Maybe we would have gotten to where we are
today, but I don’t know that for sure.
Shane was our saving grace.
Shane, she is yours now.
Yes, she still belongs to her friends and family, but most of all, she
is yours. Take care of her. Love her even when she irrationally freaks
out (I love you, Tiff). Be prepared to
get back to Texas the SECOND you are done with school. Y’all are NOT having any Tennessee babies.
