We met on Bumble in 2019—me in Venezuela, him in the USA—and spent a year building a connection through texts and calls. In 2020, he made it possible for me and my mom to visit the USA, where we met in person for the first time. When COVID-19 hit, we ended up staying together during lockdown, which brought us even closer. By July 12, 2020, we got married in a small ceremony with just my mom and his parents present due to the pandemic. From the start, we promised to have a proper wedding in a Catholic church when the time was right. On July 12, 2025, our 5th anniversary, we will fulfill that promise and celebrate our love with all our loved ones in the way we always dreamed.
