It all started with a TikTok comment section — the modern town square. Krista noticed Cornell under a match making post where everyone was sharing their age, location, and interests. Something about his energy stood out, so she sent the first DM. Cornell took a few days to respond (he claims he was “busy,” but we all know he was just trying to play it cool). Once he finally replied, the conversation never stopped. What began as a long‑distance message thread turned into late‑night calls, shared playlists, and the feeling that somehow, across miles and algorithms, we had found our person. And now here we are — from a TikTok comment to forever.
