Emily’s POV: MK and I met on hinge in fall of 2022 and needless to say, I was head over heels very quickly. I may or may not have double texted her because HAVE YOU SEEN HER - I knew I wanted her attention. During our first date, she made me feel heard and cared for - showing intentionality from the time I met her. It’s also worth noting that she was late to our date because she stopped to met a dog. In true Emily fashion, I introduced her to my whole Denver friend group on the first date and they too, were on team MK. It’s an honor to love MK. She is my dream girl and makes me want to be the best version of myself so I can love her in better ways every day. Here’s to forever with my dream girl. MK’s POV: On our first date I was late because I stopped to pet a dog, and Emily had gotten there early which I later learned is not typical for her. I immediately felt comfortable and intrigued by this brilliant, kind, and confident woman who invited me along to meet all of her friends which felt like our first adventure together. Since then we have explored and traveled many different places together and have had a lot of adventures. Some planned like going up into the mountains and traveling for holidays. Some unplanned like visiting both ERs in winter park in under 24 hours. I am so lucky to love and be loved by Emily. She continues to inspire me with how great of a friend she is, how passionate she is about building communities, and how she is always willing to be the first one to jump in. I can’t wait for all of the next adventures we have together and know they will always be exciting with you by my side.
