Jason and Erika met after being set up on a blind date by mutual friends. The four friends met at Jason's house that night and went to Xfinity. Erika and Jason had a great time talking and laughing all night and seemed to hit it off, even though Erika was skeptical at first. At the end of the night, Erika took Jason's number. She took a few days to call him, but when she finally called, he was happy to hear from her. He asked her on a date that weekend for dinner and salsa dancing. Erika was so nervous, she watched videos online to practice salsa dancing before their date. The night of their first "official" date, they went to Chili's for dinner and then out dancing. It was a fun night, even though Erika didn't know how to salsa and Jay did! On their way home, Jason said he wanted ice cream, and they stopped at Walmart to get some at 1 o'clock in the morning. (This was Erika's first introduction to how much Jay liked sweets!) This ended up being their date night tradition, from their first date until now. Erika and Jason end up at Walmart buying ice cream late at night after every date. Erika always laughs that he took her to Walmart on their first date!
