Abbey and Lee met at a restaurant in March 2017. Within the first conversation, it was quite obvious they were very different; Lee being the reserved, quiet one, and Abbey a free spirited, extrovert. But regardless of the undeniable differences, there was something that attracted them to one another, and with only one thing in common (being a shared love for coffee) that lead to their first date. After that, there was no keeping them apart; the affection grew fast. Between date nights, texting and Skyping, they were always in contact and always having fun. As weeks turned into months, it was obvious this was something special. And it also became quite apparent there was someone else who needed to be in on all the excitement (even though he was just two)! Packson and Lee met in late-May, and that meeting was the litmus test which proved Lee and Abbey’s relationship should definitely continue. The two became fast friends, and Packson acted as if he had his own personal jungle gym called “Wee”. Many great things have happened since! Abbey graduated from an esthiology program, Lee was promoted to 1st Lieutenant and Packson started preschool. During this time of personal growth, Abbey’s and Lee’s relationship grew as well. They got to know each other’s friends and family. When big decisions came up, they together made a decision and “I like you” turned to “I love you”. Jokes about how different they were continued, but to their surprise never became an issue. After over two years together, Lee decide to take Packson along and find Abbey a ring. He surprised Abbey with tickets to a Halloween play and proposed the night of the play in October 2019. It was a very sweet, intimate proposal. There is no denying they provide a much needed balance to each other’s life. While Abbey is the feeler, Lee is the thinker. Lee plans for their future while Abbey makes sure they enjoy the present. Together they found out why opposites attract.
