After a few swipes, fate brought us together in Princeton, NJ—where Miguel later proposed to Amanda. Though we started with a slightly medium-distance relationship, we quickly made the most of our free time, finding any excuse to be with each other. As our love blossomed, Miguel bonded with Amanda’s son, Jesse, and instantly earned the nickname “Migueli.” The connection between them was immediate, and we knew our little family was meant to be. From the very start, our relationship felt easy and natural. It was as if we’d known each other forever, and less than six months into our time together, we decided to take a road trip across the country to Kansas. The journey only solidified our love and confirmed what we had always felt—a deep, unshakeable sense of forever. On our 2-year anniversary, Miguel asked Amanda to marry him, and in that moment, we both knew there was no reason to wait. After all, we had already waited years to meet each other, and now, we couldn’t wait to start the rest of our lives together.
