We met on a dating app like most people do in this day and age. Michael was up in Chicago, Illinois and I was back in Florida. Someone paid to change his location. I wasn't going to talk to him, let alone anyone but he showed interest by extending his time for longer than the normal 24 hours. This was back in August of 2021. We never met face to face until October 2021, where Michael was driving from Massachusetts to Florida. With him, he brought a 5 month old Nugget. Michael stayed that first night he was back in Florida and through the weekend. Our first date was me helping him move into his new apartment. He left Sunday night and let me take care of Nugget along with my other five dogs. Nugget is now a Momma's boy and forever will be. We started dated immediately and on February 4th 2022, Michael invited his best friend Eric and now wife Alexa down to witness Michael proposing and of course Disney afterwards. Now a year later we are finally getting married so both of us won't forget the date. We are both terrible with remembering

I was on bumble doing single man things, I'll leave that up to your own interpretations. I ended up matching with Kaytlin, I thought she was interesting and well she didn't ever message me. I was in Chicago and she was in Florida, so I understood why, but I decided to extend the time. Low and Behold, shortly after I got a message from her. We ended up messaging and exchanging snapchats and numbers. Then we started facetiming each other. We talked for hours and hours and on my ride back to Massachusetts and Florida. Our first date was helping me move into my apartment back in Florida. I began to fall in love with the dogs and her almost instantaneously(mostly the dogs). Our little zoo of animals. On February 4th 2022 I invited my best friend Eric(who is the best man) and his now wife Alexa down to Florida to be there for the engagement and also go to Disney World. I recently hurt my back and couldn't stand up straight let alone get down on one knee. From what I remember is Kaytlin coming home from work with me in the doorway with ring in hand and struggling to get down on one knee and finally giving up and asking her if she wanted to marry my broken self. Apparently she loves me enough to say yes and still won't let me live the "most romantic" proposal down. Now one year later we are getting married and it will be one more date I have to remember. As Kaytlin said, we are not good with dates.
