How we met

The beginning

We were introduced and became friends in June of 2016. Granted, we didn’t meet in person. Brandyn had met Aaron Cordeau (Best Man) online, and from there Aaron introduced us to each other via online voice chat platform. We just happened to have the same interests when it came to online games, and we became fast friends.

The Spark

Feelings blossomed

We had been talking to each other every day from the time we met. If we had free time, we were talking and playing games or even just watching videos together by using Skype or other video call platforms. By July, we decided to tentatively begin a long distance relationship. We enjoy each other’s company so much!

The Meeting

Finally face-to-face

Brandyn came down for a week in September as a very early birthday present. He stayed a week. It was nerve wracking and exciting all at once... we wondered if it would be awkward or different from how we were online... it was better than anything we could have dreamt. There was no awkwardness, and being able to have each other close physically for the first time only strengthened our feelings for each other. It was confirmation that this relationship was something we both wanted.

Moving in

Testing the waters

We took turns visiting each other. I went up to Wisconsin to meet his family since he had come down to meet me and mine. Once Christmas and New Years started getting close, we began to discuss the possibility of moving in together. We wanted to make sure we could live together before advancing our relationship. After discussing it with both of our parents.. he came down to spend Christmas and New Years with my family, and on New Year’s Day, we began the move up to Wisconsin.

The Trials

Testing our resolve

We lived together for about a year an a half. First sharing his parents place, then moving into our own apartment in May of 2017. In this time there were many trials... We each had a time in which we lost our jobs, and the other person had to take care of everything. We had disagreements, bad days, good days, adventures! We had scary moments in which we had to go to the hospital, and we took turns being sick and taking care of each other when we couldn’t care for ourselves. We always made sure that by the end of the day, no matter what kind of day it was, we let each other know that we were okay, we love each other very much, and that we would make it through anything that was happening.

The Proposal

The start of our forever

We had decided we were going to move back to Texas in 2018. We began making plans around this, and when the time came, my parents came up to help us move. Before we left, Brandyn had wanted to go out to Lake Michigan one more time and see if I could finally make it to the lighthouse on the lake (I had been far too scared to do it before). We made a day out of it. When we finally reached the lighthouse, we were enjoying the view and the weather... when I turned around to find Brandyn on his knee, and a box in his hand. He expressed his love for me, and asked me to marry him... and of course, I said yes! It was one of the happiest days of our lives.

A Lifetime Awaits
