We met at a local LGBT bar in Kansas City. Caneisha had just moved here (to the Midwest of all places), and I had been here just hanging out and having a good time! When we first met, I was not interested (girl code), and my friend was. We never looked at each other romantically until one day, it just happened! From that day, six years came and gone and what started as a random bar encounter turned into a friendship that lasted! She had recently gone through a pretty tough breakup, and I was living my best life. One day lightning struck us a the same time! It was nothing we had ever encountered before. What's even funny is that before Cupid's bow struck us, we still laugh at how we would never date "someone like us." Our type was the opposite. Now, 11 years later, knowing one another and being together for about 7 or 8 (we think we lost a year in there), we are ready to spend the rest of our lives together! ****Update***** Okay! We couldn't wait! We ELOPED on 10.23.21, surrounded by close family and a couple of friends. Of course, that doesn't mean this is the end... Oh no! This is just the beginning! We STILL want to celebrate our union with all of our family, friends, and loved ones, and we can't wait two years! So Save the DATE for 10.16.2022!! We hope to see you all there!
