Mark and I met because of mutual friends in Greenville, SC during the summer of 2015. I had just graduated from Clemson University and was spending time in the area before moving back to my hometown of Lexington, KY. I remember meeting him outside of a bar one June night in downtown Greenville, but do not recall thinking anything of it (or remembering his name). About a month later, we crossed paths again at a party. I happened to notice him getting a drink at the bar and thought he looked good in his work pants. We hit it off and the rest is history.

Annie and I met one night in downtown Greenville, SC through friends. We had a brief conversation in which I was very suave. The next day, I mentioned to our friend that I was interested in Annie. When this was relayed to Annie, she said "who?" Fortunately for us, true love finds a way, and we had another opportunity to meet again at our mutual friend's party. Annie had just moved to Lexington, KY, but decided to come back to Greenville for this party. We were able to talk for longer and I was equally suave, but this time the sparks really flew. Although Annie was headed back to Lexington, I asked for her number and the rest is history.
