Michael and I met the first day of high school in 2011. We started dating in May of 2018 when he came home from his junior year of college. My maid of honor Alyssa, and Michaels best man Jon, have been dating since high school and were scheming to set us up together. Michael was persistent and tried to take me on a date for a year before I finally agreed. We went on our first date and we both knew right away that we were going to be together forever. Over the last 7 years we did 18 months long distance while he was in Indiana, followed by another year while he played overseas. After I graduated I was able to join him during his last contract where we lived together in Spain for 3 months before finishing out the last months of long distance. In October of 2022 we flew the nest and started a life together up here in Portland Oregon and couldn't be happier.
