One sunday night in June 2023, Connor decided to add Kate on Snapchat. Kate accepted thinking it was someone else (she was surely wrong). After a month of talking, Connor asked Kate on a first date but stood her up, finally they finally had a successful second first date that lasted 10 hours. During this date, Kate recorded a Snapchat video, jokingly predicting Connor might be her future husband. On their fourth date, which coincided with Connor's birthday, he accidentally confessed his love for Kate. Just four days later, they officially started dating. Since then, they have been inseparable, sharing countless experiences together. Connor was the first boyfriend Kate took to Oklahoma to meet her dad during Thanksgiving, just four months into their relationship. This visit marked a significant milestone, showing how special Connor was to Kate. They celebrated holidays with each other's families, made new friends, and hosted numerous parties and gatherings. In April 2024, they moved into a house together with their two cats and soon adopted a third. By October 2024, Connor decided it was time to propose. He planned a surprise proposal at a lake, involving both their families, including Kate's parents from Oklahoma. Now, they are excitedly planning their wedding, looking forward to celebrating with their families and friends.
