We matched on Hinge back in 2024, and the truth is, our conversation didn’t really take off. We talked a little, but it didn’t feel like anything serious. Still, something made us curious enough to meet in person. So, we did first in OKC. It wasn’t a big dramatic moment, but it felt comfortable, and it felt real. A couple months later, we met again in St. Louis. We were still trying to figure out what we were to each other. After that trip, we both felt like maybe we just weren’t the right match, so we stopped talking. No drama, no big reason, just two people who thought the timing or the connection wasn’t quite there. Then six months passed. Decided to give second chance. We started talking again. We decided to take a trip to Chicago together, not knowing what would come from it. But that trip changed everything. Between the city, the food, and just being together without overthinking it, something finally clicked. The connection we didn’t feel before showed up all at once. By the time we left Chicago, we were hooked on each other in the best and happiest way. It wasn’t a straight path, but it was ours. And it led us exactly where we were meant to be.
