It all started when a certain girl kept spotting a certain guy around town at various fitness activities. After enough accidental sightings, she confidently told her neighbor, “I’m definitely going to meet that guy.” (Manifestation is real, people.) Two weeks later, that same guy showed up to the same Orangetheory class… and stood right next to her. Cue the butterflies. 🦋 Determined to make this not just another sweaty coincidence, the girl started lingering after class to chit-chat. They even sat next to each other at a gym social hour, which obviously meant things were getting serious. She then informed her friends that the next time she saw him, she was asking him out — because hello, it was 2017 and girls absolutely do that. Enter: December Nights in Balboa Park — aka a busy, magical, meant-to-be kind of evening. They both ended up walking to class, then after, walking back together. Three blocks later, they stopped at a street corner… and talked for three hours. The girl skipped a holiday party, the guy finally asked for her number, and they’ve basically been talking ever since. And that’s how a few fitness classes, a little courage, and one very long street-corner conversation turned into forever. 💛
