Frank met Alexa in 2013 and thought "she's really cute". Unfortunately, Alexa has no memory of this and moved to California just a few months later. When she returned in 2016, she met Frank for the second time (her first) and thought "he's really cute". Frank asked for her number, and when he texted her to see how her day was going, Alexa thought he was just a really, really nice guy as she had considered him to be out of her league. Turns out, he was smitten. They had their first date in April 2017, where Frank worked up the nerve to kiss her on a Philadelphia street after spending money he didn't have trying to impress her at a fancy dinner. After that kiss, they both kinda knew it was something that could go somewhere.
