I (Harley) asked Ethan to be my “rent-a-boyfriend,” and our first date was spent riding through the Christmas lights, followed by a Sonic parking lot hangout. By December 5, 2020, Ethan made it official... and we’ve never looked back.
May 2, 2025 was a whirlwind: Ethan graduated, got a job offer from UAPD, and I was in heels walking what felt like two miles across campus (not my happiest moment). When I finally reached the fountain at the President’s Mansion, everyone was shouting for us to take a picture. I ran over and Ethan dropped to one knee. I didn’t even hesitate. Of course I said yes.
Five years, three dogs, one house, and countless memories later… our story has taken us from high school sweethearts to college graduates, from long-distance to living together, and now to planning our future. The best part? We’re just getting started.
