One night Alex went out for a bite to eat with his friends, Tim and Bonnie, to a local restaurant. Because they were regulars at the establishment, Tim asked the waitress, Danielle, if she had any friends to introduce Alex to. She instantly thought of her best friend, Brittany. Brittany and Alex ended up exchanging numbers. After realizing that they had a lot in common, they agreed to eventually meet for dinner one night. However, Brittany decided to wait due to Christmas being right around the corner. Brittany and Danielle decided to grab lunch on New Years Day and after Danielle realized Brittany still didn't reach out to Alex, she yelled at her and told her to call or text him immediately (THANK YOU DANIELLE!) Alex was finally able to meet Brittany later that evening and they have been inseparable ever since. He still teases her to this day that it was the longest two weeks of his life waiting to hear from her, but she thanks god every day that she took a chance or she would have never met her soulmate.
