Stephen & I met 5 years ago. We were friends on social media via having an abundance of friends in common. During a concert at City Center in Champaign in early 2016, we finally ran into each other in person. We communicated briefly after that, and then in 2019 we reconnected. I always tell Steve, I cannot believe I am going to marry someone I already knew from years earlier. We are compatible on every level. We make each other laugh, cry tears of joy, and better each other’s lives in every way. It just comes natural. We cannot wait until “I do!”
