Emily & Patrick met in the Fall of 2018 at CrossFit Peekskill while pursuing their shared love of fitness. They chatted occasionally over those weeks & it seemed Emily finally peeked Patrick's interest with her constant talk of her upcoming 25th birthday party. It was from this moment on that their conversation seemed to grow effortlessly. The weeks turn into months and one gloomy mid-March day, Patrick arrived at the gym to find Emily not in her usual high spirits. He came over to where she was stretching to ask her what was wrong & for 20 minutes they talked & her worries eased. Having stayed in a one-sided couch stretch that entire time, she is now forever more flexible on her left side. From this day on, they began texting endlessly. Then one conversation, Emily asked Patrick what he did for a living. He answered, "Production Planner for a pharmaceutical company but FYI I was a psych major that never took a business class lol." Intrigued, Emily texted back, "Wait now ya gotta tell me how you went from psych major to this kind of job." Without missing a beat, Patrick suavely answered. “That’s a great question. I should tell you all about it over dinner.” And on March 30, 2019, they went to Gleason’s for dinner. But did they eat? No. They talked and talked until the bar closed, both too nervous to order food, both too caught up in the moment to care (although Emily most definitely cared a lot). Fast forward through a second date, a friend-zoning, a trip upstate, a pandemic, dates that included more food than their first, moving in together, an engagement, and moving to Philly together. Now we’re here. #MoniganSnatchedAnAdamo
