After meeting on Bumble we had our first date at a little bar in Brooklyn named Doris. It became apparent that we had to get married, being the only two people that could hear each other talk in a loud room. It was all Star Trek, Charlie and video games from then on.
On our first trip to Hawaii, early one morning we got up to see the sunrise alone at the beach. I’d been carrying the ring with me the whole trip waiting for a quiet, private moment and this was surely it. With islands on the horizon and sun rays gleaming from the ocean waves, I turned to Cheryl and asked her to marry me. And of course, she said… "Are you sure?" To which I said, "Yes." And she in turn replied to me, "Yes."
