Cast of Characters

I've decided to introduce the cast of characters.  It can get complicated explaining how everyone fits in and rather than take an entire paragraph to do so, I'm going to do it here. I've changed their names.  I'll add to this list as necessary so if you read a new name, feel free to reference this for information.

These are the individuals I met while living in Virginia:
Sophia - when I was 16 my family moved across the country for a job.  I met Sophia at church and we were almost instant friends.  She's a year older than I am.  We were roommates for about 2 years after graduating from high school.

Jackson - I first started dating Jackson when I was 19, he was 18.  We were serious for about two years before he broke my heart.  I thought we were going to get married.

Aiden - Jackson's older brother and Sophia's boyfriend for awhile.  Best friends dating brothers.  We were living the dream for about a year.

Lucas - Lucas and I had an interesting relationship.  I'll go into more details on a post. Needless to say, at times he liked me and I liked him, but never at the same time. Ultimately we had a huge fight which he never got over.  I knew our friendship was over when I found out he got married from a mutual friend's mom 6 months later.

Liam - Sophia's boyfriend when I first met her.  He stayed around after they broke up and was a little crazy, but a lot of fun.

These are the individuals I met while living in Ohio:
Emma - My best friend from about 22 on.  We don't live near each other and haven't for about 10 years, but still talk regularly and get together when we can.

Noah - Oh, Noah.  Another guy I dated who broke my heart.  I met him at 22, he was 21 and we dated on and off for several months before he moved to attend college.  There will be several posts devoted to him.

Mason - Emma's boyfriend.

Ethan - Best man on this list and my eventual husband.

Olivia - another girlfriend.  At one point she was dating Noah's brother until he broke her heart too.

Caden - I sort of dated Caden for about 3 months before I served a mission for my church. He was convinced that we were going to get married even though I was very open to the fact that I wasn't interested in him that way.  It was funny and sad at the same time.

These are the individuals I met while attending college:
Ava - roommate.  Ava and Sophia were childhood friends.

Mia - the other roommate.  She was crazy.  She was taking medication, but decided to stop while we lived together.  Lots of fun.

Oliver - another guy I sort of dated for awhile.  He really liked me, I basically used him.  Not a proud moment for me.

Elijah - Ava's boyfriend, eventual husband.

Grayson - Elijah's roommate.  I had a major crush on him, and although at times would flirt with me, never showed real interest in me.  Just enough to get my hopes up.
