If you want to get technical this crush started for Kristen in the 8th grade. Kristen and Kyle went to different schools, but knew each other through mutual friends. Both always having a girlfriend/boyfriend throughout high school and college, they never made any attempts to connect until spring 2015. Kristen spotted Kyle from across the bar…yes, I said it…a bar! Better looking than she remembered, she thought to herself that somehow she had to muster up the nerves to talk to him. She made her way across the bar to say hello, but was stopped by one of Kyle’s friends, Sidney. Before leaving that night, Kristen and Sidney exchanged numbers. The next morning, still having Kyle on her mind, Kristen used her connection with Sidney to get Kyle’s number. Kristen texted Kyle and waited patiently. After a couple of minutes came his response and after talking every day for almost a month, the two decided that it was time for a first date. Kyle took Kristen to Stella’s Bistro on April 22nd where the connection between the two was undeniably instant. From then on, the two were inseparable! In a way, I guess we can thank Sidney and Ford’s Oyster Bar for bringing us together. It’s funny how things work out! – Kyle & Kristen
