It ' s more like eh t ' were . The contraction is it with were . The pronunciation comes out eh t ' were . <| sep |> I drafted Ware because I am JC owner . That ' s why I am more pissed since Chiefs kept JC ' s health really obscure . May be I am being too dramatic . LOL . <| sep |> In my case , yes and no . I originally met him in 9 th grade 10 th for him when I was dating his friend . He was quiet and always wore a brown jacket . I said hello to him once and he never responded . During his senior ? year he had a makeover where he ' d lose some weight and got new clothes . I noticed him in the hallway and pointed out that he was wearing sandals by saying You have feet ! like it was a shocking revelation to me . In reality I guess the difference caught me off guard , despite never having spoken to each other . Fast forward to my freshman year of college and I ' d like the occasional Facebook status of his and I think we ' d chatted back and forth some . At one point he asked if I ' d help him with an English paper . I said no because I was dating someone at the time and thought he was trying to flirt with me by trying to get me to come hang out . He really did just want help , and ended up with a C in that class . In the second semester I was out of that horrible relationship and I remember liking his status about not praying to God to ask for things all the time but to thank him for the good in your life . He wasn ' t the type to post things like that and didn ' t seem overly religious at all but I thought it was a cool thing to post and I liked the sentiment of it and at some point we began messaging back and forth and eventually texting . In March 2012 we made plans for him to come with my friends and I to a club in a nearby city that was supposed to be known for letting underaged people drink so smart of us , I know and when we got there he told me he couldn ' t leave because his friends were having a surprise 20 th birthday party for him , which I understood . So we stopped and said hello and I went back with my friends to drink and we kept texting throughout the night and even made a bet that whoever fell asleep first had to be the one to come hang out with the other . Since he was drunk when I ' d gotten there to say hello , he lost said bet and we hung out . The exact moment though was probably before we even got there . It was super casual since I was with my friends but inside I was so nervous to really meet and actually see each other in person despite ' knowing ' each other for years . When we got to his friend ' s house and he came outside I can ' t remember the words I said but I remember giving him a hug . The hug seemed to oddly come out of nowhere on my part but he accepted it and I didn ' t honestly want to let go . I ' d dated plenty before and nothing had felt so right , especially so suddenly and without really knowing anything about him on a personal level . When we hung out the following day , we became inseparable . I ' ve never had someone so on my side and there for me like he is . We got engaged like 2 weeks after getting together and married around 3 months from then . We ' ve been married for a little over 4 years I was 19 , he was 20 when we got married and bought our first home last December .
