It all started with a dating app called Hinge. One day, Zack was going through Hinge and came across Kate's profile. He thought, "she's cute" and decided to like one of her pictures and message her. When Kate opened the app, she saw Zack's profile. She thought, "he's cute" and decided to respond back. After small talking on Hinge, they decided to exchange numbers, and shortly after that, they started talking about meeting in person. However, this wasn't just any regular year, this was 2021 when Covid was still a thing. So, they decided to start with a Zoom call instead. When the Zoom date day arrived, Zack and Kate hopped on a Zoom call and awkwardly started to talk. As they continued to get to know each other, it slowly became less awkward. Some would say the date was going well. Nine and a half hours later, they were still talking but they decided to cut their date short because they were both getting tired. They said their 'good nights' and ended the Zoom call. Zack thought, "she's cool, I'd like to see her again." Kate thought, "he's cool, I'd like to see him again." So, they started planning when they'd next meet. After weighing out the pros and cons about seeing each other in person and risking Covid, they decided, f*ck it, and met in person. The rest is history. *This love story is not sponsored by Hinge or Zoom*
