It all started in Psychology 100 at John Carroll University. I was a freshman, and he was a sophomore. I sat in front of him every day, unaware that he often noticed me. Early in the semester, we saw each other but assumed the other was already taken. As time went on, I decided to break the silence. One day, I walked into class, turned around, and simply asked, “I’m having trouble with biology—would you mind helping me?” That small moment sparked something between us, and from then on, we’ve been by each other’s side ever since.
