Yes, it’s on! We’re getting married in 2021!

Chris and Rebecca met at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2013. Chris had recently joined the same research group as Rebecca, and Rebecca had organized a movie outing to get the reclusive lab group to socialize. Unsurprisingly, everyone bailed except Chris, so they ended up on an impromptu date. Chris drove Rebecca to the movie in his squeaky 2002 Honda CR-V. When she asked what the squeaking was, he admitted that it was the clutch and he had tried to fix it by "sticking my fingers where I thought the sound was coming from and spraying some WD-40 in that general direction." Rebecca knew he was the one.
