Aaron and Shakeria met in the student activities office on the campus of Alabama A&M in summer 2015, when Aaron asked her on a date. Shakeria told him sure, took his number, and never followed up. As time went by, they would see each other a few times and Aaron continuously inquired about going to eat with him. Even then she never reached out. Months later, Aaron would connect with Shakeria through GroupMe expressing his interest in getting to know her and she finally texted him. A week later they would go on their first date and the rest was history! They both graduated college a year later, began their professional careers, and loving each other as they grew together. Seven years after their first date, Aaron and Shakeria will become a married couple .
