Yes, we met on Hinge! He swiped, I swiped, and then we spent all week sending voicenotes back and fourth. In a week, he asked me on our first date! It was the end of February in 2023. It was cold and pouring rain- the perfect excuse to cancel, but he didn't! He picked me up, in Dtla at my apartment, opened my door like a gentleman, and took me bowling at a very retro bar. His joy was the loudest thing about him followed by his laugh! Between the two of us, the talking never stopped. By the end of the night, I knew I didn't want it to end. He introduced me to Larry June and we rapped Dom Kennedy. As we sat in his car in the rain, Javon joked "Let's go to the courthouse right now! Let's get married.", and I told him "You play too much." In our ongoing game of Truth of Dare, I dared him to take me on a second date. He one-upped me with a dare me to come to Barcelona with him. We kissed goodnight in the rain just like a movie. Within a month, we made our way to Europe for his birthday, and it's been a dream ever since.
