We both took a leap of faith in the summer of 2024 and joined Hinge, each hoping to find the one. Josh liked my profile first and sent a message that came with confidence—and a full plan for our first date. We met at a cafe for boba, and after a few minutes of awkward small talk, something just clicked. We discovered shared interests, easy conversation, and genuine connection—so much so that we talked until the cafe closed. Even then, we stayed outside chatting for hours, only parting ways after midnight. From that night on, things felt different. What started as mutual attraction quickly grew into shared values, intentions, and a sense that we’d found something truly rare. On January 17, 2025, Josh proposed in the Georgia mountains—and told me he had known I was the one since that very first date.
