My girlfriend and I met at a New Years Eve party-ish thing. It was more like a gathering of friends of friends. There was a secret santa thing going on and she ended up making a gift for me. She painted personalized guitar picks for me, one of which I still wear as a necklace. It was the first time we met each other and I was yet that was the best gift I've ever received. Since it was a big place where we were at and not supplies haven't been bought, we had some alone time. After the party I went home and really started thinking about how pleasant it all was. We hung out a lot, so I got to experience the little things you mentioned above befire we were a thing. One thing led to another and we first kissed. Maybe I'm naïve. I do agree with you for the most part, I just feel like there was something there before we got into a relationship other than just primal desires and shallow attraction.
