His Version: We initially met at Starbucks by the boardwalk and after leaving we wandered down to the water. The scenery was beautiful and the cold weather didn’t matter because we were so connected and lost in great conversation. We talked about our godchildren, shared passions for travel and family. She had me laughing the entire time and her energy was magnetic. I couldn’t stop admiring her beauty, her smile, and her presence. That night, we didn't just talk about our lives, we shared our hopes, values and what we truly desired in a partner. By the end of the night, we were already planning our next date, and a year later, I made her my fiancée. 💍❤️ Her Version: It’s funny how fate has a way of getting things just right, even when it starts a little wrong. Our first date nearly didn’t happen, and it all started with a mix-up at Starbucks. We’d planned to meet at the Starbucks in University, but somehow, we both ended up at different locations. I arrived at the Starbucks on University Blvd however, he was at the Starbucks off North Tryon. I sat there waiting, checking my phone, debating if I should just head home and cue up a Netflix binge. Little did I know, he was thinking the same thing at Starbucks just a few blocks away. After a few text messages and a shared laugh, we finally found each other, and from that moment on everything just clicked. The night was effortless. We talked for hours, laughed even more and connected in a way that felt instantly familiar. Who would’ve thought that our "unexpected" start would lead to the most perfect first date?
