Once I became single I wasn't sure what I was ready for as far as a relationships. I had some friends that went to Cyprus since I lived in West Valley before we moved when I was in 4th grade and Trent also went to Cyprus so we met through mutual friends and in December of 2013 we started talking online through Facebook. He was working and living in his own place and I was working, being a mom and living with my parents. I was still going on dates with other guys and Trent and I would talk every once in a while.
After having a lot of bad dates and crazy people we started texting each other a lot more and decided to meet up in April for the first time. Since my court custody was almost done, we had a legal visitation schedule at this point, Trevin was going over night on Friday until Saturday at noon and that schedule started in March. So I left to meet Trent in Bountiful after Trevin left for the night and we met at a restaurant down the street from his place and talked for a while and then I went and met his HUGE great dane for the first time at his condo and we watched a movie. I know it sounds crazy going to his place for the first time when we met but I didn't have a bad feeling about this and I tend to go with my gut feeling about things (since my gut is mostly right especially recently!). When I first met Trent and saw him for the first time I had butterflies and to this day I still remember what he was wearing. He was everything I was looking for in a guy and the type of guy I would imagine myself marrying when I was little. Obliviously the first thing I noticed was his eyes, his perfect smile, and the shirt he was wearing. Once we started talking I could finally see and feel that this was going somewhere. He remember me talking about how much I love scary movies so we had one picked out already when we went to his place. When the night ended Trent ended up kissing me and that's when I knew I wanted to be with him forever and from that day we couldn't stay away from each other. I finally met a man that was respectful and everything I want in my life. When I introduced him to my family I was so extremely nervous. My mom asked me to pick out some outfits for the kids Easter baskets so Trent went with me to Target and when he came to pick me up he met my dad since my mom wasn't home. I had to go downstairs to get my stuff and I could hear him talking to my dad and telling him what he does and what not and they hit it off really well. Trent came over to my house to watch movie after Trevin went to bed but when he got there and we started watching the movie Trevin decided to wake up. I decided that I was ready for Trent to meet Trevin for the first time so I asked Trent how he felt about that and he was really excited. Trevin was about 11 months old so he wasn't really aware of what was going on but he liked Trent and smiled at him even though he was tired and ever since that day Trevin has been attached to Trent and always asks for him now and wants to call him or play with him. I met Trent's family on his mom's birthday at his grandparents' house. His mom automatically loved Trevin and wanted to hold him and play with him and of course I was nervous and shy. His family has always been accepting of me and Trevin and they treat Trevin like their own grandchild. Meeting Trent has changed my life. I am actually in a relationship that is healthy and not abusive and I'm not worried about him cheating on me. I have always had trust issues with guys I've dated mostly with cheating and now being with Trent I don't have to worry about that. We have a great relationship with a healthy communication between both of us. He has always respected me as a mother and has always supported me as a mother. He knew what he was getting into being with someone that has a child and that takes a strong person to do. Trent has gone from single 25 year old, living in his own house, having is four wheeler and cars to changing diapers, pushing a stroller, and dealing with the emotions of a one year old all within a couple months. I don't know how he could handle all that but he hasn't given up on anything with us. Everything in my life has a reason behind it and having Trent appear when I needed a man like him the most has changed everything for me. Now I know what love is really like when it comes to a relationship and commitment.
