It started in January 2019; we met at the Culvers in Grayslake, IL. Tyler fell in love with my eyes, and I laughed at all his jokes. It wasn't until May of 2019 that we talked again and planned a first date to... Culvers. For the next two years it was curds, custard, and cuddles. We dated in college and saw each other as much as we could until...December 2021 WOMP WOMP. We broke up?! Every good story must have a twist, it keeps the audience engaged. Although we weren't together anymore, we kept finding excuses to talk to each other (Tyler more than me but I wasn't keeping score). Eventually, in September 2023, Tyler realized how amazing, beautiful, and funny I am and how rare that is to find. Seriously, though, the love and connection we have proved to be stronger than the time and distance we spent apart. There was only ever one way forward, and that was together. Here we are, Summer 2025, making plans to officially spend the rest of our lives together. How exciting it is to find your person not once but twice ;)
