Ben and Lorita’s story began in an unexpected place — on League of Legends in 2014. What started as a single game became something more when Lorita carried the team to victory. When Ben asked for her number, Lorita made him a deal: for every win they earned together, she would give him one digit. Ten wins later — after patience, persistence, and more than a few games — he finally earned all ten digits. That playful challenge sparked a conversation, and from there, they remained connected on and off through the years. In 2023, their paths crossed again in a deeper, more meaningful way. This time, they spoke every night, slowly and intentionally getting to know one another. Lorita soon noticed something rare about Ben — he listened with care, held her words close, and remembered even the smallest details. What once began as a solo victory gently evolved into a true partnership, where supporting one another mattered just as much as winning. In October 2023, Lorita flew to Washington to meet Ben in person for the first time. From the moment they met, everything felt natural and effortless, as though their connection had always known its way there. During that visit, Ben asked Lorita to be his girlfriend, marking the beginning of a new chapter built on trust, care, and shared purpose. The following year brought more time together, with Ben traveling to Maryland in January and May, and with each visit, their bond only deepened. In August 2024, when Lorita returned to Washington, Ben asked her to spend forever with him — and she said YES. In December 2024, Lorita moved to Washington, and they began their life side by side. Today, they move through life as a beautifully balanced team — sometimes one leads, sometimes one supports, always lifting each other toward the same dream. Best friends in every sense, they are deeply in love and endlessly excited to build their future together.
