We first connected on Tinder back in the late Spring of 2019. After exchanging messages and a few calls, we decided to meet for our first date at the Downtown Hollywood Beach patio restaurant named Whiskey Tango. I was starving, so I ordered my meal and a calming drink special, arriving at the restaurant first. Shortly after, Anthony walked in, his smile and charisma lighting up the dimly lit patio. Engrossed in conversation, we spent the night talking and laughing. Despite meeting as two strangers from a digital app, there was instant chemistry between us. Anthony kindly offered to drive me home, and the conversation continued for hours. It felt like we had known each other forever. From that Tinder match to our first date at Whiskey Tango, our story became one of certainty—no longer "what if," but "when." Love found us in the digital realm and blossomed amidst the cozy ambiance of Whiskey Tango, creating a history to be cherished together.
