In September of 2017, David's best friend Gerry moved to Chicago. He moved into a house of Christian guys doing ministry in the Little Village neighborhood...and just so happened to be my neighbor! We became really good friends, and one day, Gerry asked me, "Emily, what are you looking for in a man?" I thought his question was crazy! I was enjoying my single life, and wasn't really "looking" for a man at all. I had put some thought into the matter though (just in case, it's good to know what your priorities are!), so I was able to tell Gerry what kind of personality and appearance attracted me. When he heard my answer, he said "I have someone to introduce you to. He's my best friend, he lives in Mexico City." I was going to go to Mexico City in April of 2018 for a friend's wedding. Gerry introduced David and me via WhatsApp in April of 2018. We hit it off right away, and started talking daily almost right away. We met in person when I arrived in Mexico City right at then end of April, 2018. David and I were both amazed at how easily and naturally we "clicked". This was obviously the relationship that was meant to be!
