Time runs together, especially during the pandemic. One can only watch so many episodes on Netflix before stagnation occurs. Wishing to occupy my mind with other things, I familiarized myself with dating apps. Now, each app has its draw, but Hinge's tagline is, "Designed to be deleted" which separated itself from the pack! Fast-forward to February 23, 2022. I open Hinge and come across a pretty face with an unusual name. Waundricka! "Hmmm... I wonder how that's pronounced?". I decided to find out, so I messaged her that day! We planned our first date and on April 16th I saw the beautiful smile that accompanied the amazing personality I had become enamored with through our communications. Our date was amazing!! From the axe throwing to the food, but both took a backseat to our shared company. Everyday since we've communicated and will continue ever after!!!!! -Lawrence In October of 2018 I moved to Jackson, TN. After living here for a few years, I was encouraged by my mother to try online dating. I researched the different dating apps and decided on Hinge because of their straight forward approach. I prayed and made a list of qualities I desired in a husband. On Feb 22, 2022 I created my profile. The day after that, I received a message from Lawrence! Lawrence and I grew closer as we communicated each day. On April 16, we had our first date where we went axe throwing and ate wonderful food! Over the next few weeks we spent more time together and fell in love. Even though we're in a long distance relationship, we experienced the nearness of each other everyday!! -Waundricka A Timeline of our Nearness February 23rd: Hinge (holla'd at her yo) March 18th: Exchanged numbers ( got the digits yo) April 16th: 1st date May 23rd: Made it official (boo'd up) May 29th: "I love yous" exchanged June 3rd: 1st kiss September 23rd: Lawrence proposes February 3, 2023: The starting line to the rest of our lives
