In May 2022, the algorithm did its thing… and we matched on Coffee Meets Bagel — just two profiles and a smooth opening line from Eric: “pancakes, waffles, or French toast?” (She never answered the question) The first date, was nothing fancy. They went for a walk along the highway – it was cold and ended with a “text me when you get home” that had no response. If you ask Eric, it was actually in downtown Sunnyvale and definitely not a highway and it was summer and it was hot outside. That simple walk led to so much more. Their first trip together took them to Cabo — beaches, camels, and the quiet realization that this wasn’t just a fun getaway. It was the start of something steady, joyful, and real. Then, on November 13, 2025 — just after Eric’s birthday — on another beautiful beach in Maui, Eric got on one knee and popped the question. And Alba thinks she said yes. What started with a match became a partnership. What began with curiosity became certainty. And now, they’re ready for the greatest adventure of all. Eric and Alba can’t wait to celebrate the start of their forever with you.
