He always tells the story with a smile; because long before he ever sent that first message, he already knew who I was. According to him, he had been quietly admiring me from a distance, checking my profile from time to time, never quite finding the right moment to reach out. He says he used to “stalk” my profile, just waiting for the perfect opportunity. Then one Friday, after seeing a picture I posted on my stories, something in him finally said, “Just do it.” He went into my DMs and sent the message that would change everything. “I’ve had the biggest crush on you for a very long time,” he wrote. And honestly… the rest is history. From that moment, everything just flowed naturally. What started as a simple message became the beginning of something beautiful—our story.
