We met through the online dating site POF. I decided to send him a simple message “I like your beard” was the message. From there we talked online daily for a year. I lived 3 hours away from him. In February of 2022 he stated going out to get his heart looked at for surgery and kept telling me he wouldn’t date anyone. By April I had picked him up several times to bring him to his appointments. It was then that Brandon decided he wanted to be serious.

On Brandon’s birthday we went to see his Grandpa and sister. I was watching kids but he insisted that I go in the house with him. When I walked in he has me sit on the couch. Brandon got down on one knee and proposed with his Batman ring. Obviously I said yes so here we are.
