We met in our high school's gaming club, where I was the president and he was the recruit. Our friendship grew stronger over the years, especially during COVID-19 lockdowns when we'd talk on Discord every night. As things opened up, we started attending cons and gaming events together. That's when the sparks flew, and we realized our connection went beyond friendship. Now, we look back on that chance meeting with gratitude for how our shared passion brought us together
Our first date was super low-key. We went to see the Trolls movie with some friends just for fun. But after the movie, our friends took off and we were alone. That's when things started to feel a little more special. We took a walk and held hands, just enjoying each other's company. It was a really sweet moment, and I think that's when we both knew there was something real between us.
