We were formally introduced by Destiny, Dustin's younger sister and one of my best friends. I thought 'oh he's cute.' and Dustin thought 'oh another one of Destiny's new friends.' The next few years as we got to know one another, I developed a crush on Dustin and I revealed my feelings to him at the school bus stop. His response 'Yea I kinda knew because of Destiny. She asked me what I thought about you.' As our senior year of high school came to an end, Dustin realized that he had developed feelings for me as well (obviously). 8 years later with a baby in tow, we are finally doing our wedding.

In the beginning of 2022, I decided to make it official and ask Gabbi to be my wife. It was hard to find the perfect ring that she wanted, but it all worked out thanks to the internet. Planning the proposal was hard because I didn't know how and when I should do it. So I needed some help from her closest friends, Destiny and Waymey. With a few suggestions, I decided to propose at the park where we had our first kiss, Oso De Oro Park in Fresno, CA. On May 14, 2022 I took Gabbi to where we had our first kiss, got down on one knee, and proposed. I told how much I loved her and how much she meant to me. She was in total disbelief, and she didn't think it was really happening. But it did, and it will be forever memorable to the both of us.
