Monica says: When we first met, he had a girlfriend which was fine because we didn't get along very well anyway. We continued to see each other, though, at diffent company functions and at one of these meetings, with a little liquid courage, he finally hit on me (the girlfriend was out of the picture by now). Thus, began the trips back and forth between Atlanta and Nashville. But, after just 3 short months, I got my dream offer to transfer to Colorado. What bad timing!! What would we do? Well, we decided to try the long distance thing, me knowing that they NEVER work. A year and a half later, to my very pleasant surprise, we were still going strong!! We decided to give the relationship a real shot and try to get to the same city so we asked work for the move and they granted dual transfers to Utah. We were thrilled!! (although a little uncertain about the whole Mormon thing) We moved to Utah last October and rented a condo for 6 months (sort of a trial period). Last March, after an awesome six months of snowboarding, snowshoeing, drinking beer, eating wings and watching football, we decided to buy a house. We bought a beautiful new home with a huge mountain view. Although 2 Chem Engrs and 2 cats make quite a household we are figuring it all out. We have happily lived together for nearly a year now and can't wait to share many more. Jamie says: I was hearing stories about Monica before I ever began working with XOM. She was sharing an office with my friend Nick while I was still in college. I started work with XOM and met her at a team meeting. I sat next to her at dinner and was immediately turned OFF! Trying to start a conversation was like pulling teeth! We briefly worked with each other at a later date when I took over some of her territory. Again, no spark. It wasn't until we spent a little time socializing at a team mtg in Denver that we began to notice a little interest. She asked me to come visit her sometime in Nashville, and that was the beginning of the end. Neither of us wanted any "strings," but I knew she couldn't resist my charms for long. Next thing I know, Ms. Independent is asking for strings, telling me the "L-word," etc... We have since overcome our long distance relationship and are trying to make the fairy tale "happily ever after" ending come true. |
