Our story began at a track meet, though, at the time, neither of us knew just how important that day would be. I noticed him from a distance but was too nervous to start a conversation. So, with some help from a friend, I passed along my number, hoping he’d reach out. Thankfully, he did—and from that very first message, is how it all began. As we got to know each other, it became clear that there was something special between us. We spent time making memories, and cheering each other on—both on and off the track. For a while, it felt like we had the perfect love story. But as life often does, it led us in different directions. The timing wasn’t quite right, and we made the decision to part ways. Even though we went our separate ways, there was always this feeling that maybe one day we will reconnect. A year later, we found our way back to each other. This time, everything felt different—( but differently not easier lol ) more natural, and exactly as it was really meant to be. Since then, life together has been an adventure. Every moment—big or small—has only confirmed what we already knew: we are meant to be. Now, as we prepare for this next chapter, we are so grateful for the journey that brought us here and can’t wait to spend forever together!”
