Tristan and I met on Hinge in March of 2019. Our first date was unforgettable, especially because it was also the first time Tristan met my family. My dad, with his background in private investigation and security, had all his tools laid out on the front counter when Tristan showed up at our door. It was quite the scene, but luckily, Dad didn’t scare him away. From that first date, we knew we had something special. We quickly became inseparable, doing everything together. We went on numerous trips and adventures, including Tristan’s first trip out of the country with us. Then came 2020, a year we’ll all remember for its challenges. Despite everything, we stayed strong. But early 2021 brought personal tragedy with the passing of my dad. It was a tough time for everyone, but it also became a year of growth. Tristan continued his career in the Navy while I started my journey in real estate. 2022 flew by, and at the end of the year, Tristan moved to Virginia for his new assignment on the USS Ford. In 2023, he was deployed overseas for nine months. We kept in touch through emails and occasional phone calls. As his deployment neared its end, we planned a trip to Italy where we could finally see each other again. Little did I know, Tristan had a big surprise in store. He had been working with my friend Mackenzie to plan something special. When I arrived in Italy, Mackenzie told me she had arranged a photography session for us. But during our boat ride, we stopped at a beautiful white church with the stunning Italian coast as our backdrop, Tristan proposed. It was a beautiful day, and the surprise made it even more memorable. And that’s our story. Filled with love, challenges, and unforgettable moments, we look forward to the future and all the adventures it will bring.
