It was the Spring of 2013. They somehow ended up following one another on Instagram, when Jasmine shared a post that Cramuel commented on. With that one comment, it opened a door of conversation for the two. After a few months of messaging online back and forth, and Cramuel returning from a trip from Miami, Fl, the two started to engage in conversation more. Eventually they exchanged numbers and planned to FaceTime. Not knowing that this would be the first of many! After that initial first FaceTime and passing the test of being who they said they were, the two could feel an instant spark. Before they knew it, it was September and they planned to finally meet face to face! Cramuel decided to make a 7 hour drive to Lincoln, IL from Detroit, MI to meet a girl he only knew from his phone! Jasmine and Cramuel had no idea that this first time meeting would be something so special. On the day Cramuel was coming, Jasmine couldn’t help but feel butterflies! He sent her a text letting her know he arrived at her school, and she went out to meet him. In that moment of their eyes meeting, face to face for the first time, it was an immediate connection. Cramuel had the biggest smile on his face and Jasmine reciprocated with an even bigger smile. She walked up to him and gave him a hug and they began what they thought would only be a nice weekend together. On September 28th, 2013, Cramuel asked Jasmine to be his girlfriend. Ever since, the two have been on the journey of life together! Making memories, sharing accomplishments, trying new experiences, learning together, loving each other and growing side by side! Now in November 2023, they are choosing to take the next step and embark into the adventure of a lifetime! Coming soon…. The Harlan’s!!
