Christine and Charles met in March 2023 after matching on Tinder. Christine’s profile mentioned Harry Potter and reading, and Charles messaged her asking when they could meet and talk about Harry Potter. They made plans to meet at a cafe that same afternoon. Their first date turned into hours of conversation about travel, fitness, and a lot of jokes by Charles. The time passed so easily that Christine didn’t even realize she was late for dinner with friends that evening. After that first date, they never stopped talking. While life got busy at times, Charles and Christine kept making time for each other. What started as a spontaneous coffee date in Beijing turned into something neither of them expected, and they are blessed to have found their best friend and partner in each other.
