Fernando and I met 10 years ago at a bar called The Local in the “very romantic" community of Pacific Beach *wink wink*. He offered to buy me a drink, but his backwards hat had me second-guessing his age. I said, “You look a little young to be buying me a drink. How old are you, 22?”. When he revealed he was actually a year older than me, I accepted that drink. There we were in a packed bar getting to know each other. We found out we both had big career dreams and adored our families. Besides thinking he was handsome, I loved the fact that Fernando was driven and excited about his future. It was a breath of fresh air talking to him. We found ourselves wanting to know more about each other, and the rest is history <3
