name a better love story. we'll wait.

Ryan and Adriane met as seniors in high school in 2004 after being set up by Adriane's friend, Andrea. They instantly hit it off and fell for each other. A brief six months later, they went their separate ways after Ryan, facing peer pressure from his friends to find another prom date, made an ill-fated decision to break up with Adriane in front of the Burger King on Route 424 in Crofton. Adriane was heartbroken and didn't go to school for an entire week. Talk about teenage drama! Fifteen years later, after lots of growing up and heartache between them, Adriane and Ryan reunited by chance on a dating app. Ryan teased Adriane about her lack of regular vehicle maintenance and encouraged her to drop her car off for an oil change. A few days and an oil change later, he came to her house for their second first date and the rest, as they say, is history. Ryan and Adriane live on an idyllic six-acre plot of land on Maryland's Eastern Shore with their three kids (Liam, Farrah and Corbin) and two dogs (Hoss and Pete). They have found a mutual love of boating on their 25' Mako, aptly named "Dirigo" after their home state of Maine. They are enjoying making up for lost time by loving each other fully and completely, every single day.
