September 3rd, 2021 First, thank you Hinge for creating the perfect platform to meet the perfect person. From 1 comment on a picture, no response for a week, to be asked out on a date, Conner should be glad Melissa's profile wasn't paused. It all started with a beer. We sat and shared our lives, family pictures and analyzed each other Fantasy Football Teams. We had a lot in common and conversation flowed easily. Conner then dropped a bomb that he was going to Alaska for week right after the date! Keeping things suspenseful, we shared a kiss and he told her he would call her. She said, "You might want my phone number first" December 2021, 3 months later, Conner moved into the Condo and we made it ours.
