LOVE IS PATIENT: New date April 30 2022

It was your typical late-night adventure to Denny's for 12am chicken and waffles. Just a bunch of college kids eating crappy food in the wee hours of the night. But while Dean was drowning his short stack with excessive quantities of syrup, someone caught his eye. This girl had big hair and a big laugh; and he couldn't take his eyes off her. That night Dean offered to share his ballin'-on-a-budget meal with Tasha, a peculiar move to his best friends, because "Dean never shares his food". Not too long after Tasha had her 21st birthday party. A few birthday drinks later Tasha acquired his number (for intellectual purposes only, of course!). After a couple months of writing page-long texts (nothing short of novels) to one another, discussing outer space, favorite childhood movies, and Hip Hop, they realized there was a spark. After a period of serious denial, involving hilariously platonic movie dates and game nights, in February of 2015 Dean finally decided to make his move. On Valentine’s Day he took her to see The Theory of Everything, the perfect balance of science and romance for these two star-struck nerds. That night they shared their first kiss---and the rest is history!
