How We Met

February 7, 2023

It all started in a engineering computer lab at Western Carolina University on February 7th, 2023. Allie had just went through the process of registering for her Physics minor and Matthew had asked her about the process because he was about to do the same. Matthew “somehow deleted” the info Allie gave him and sent a follow-up email asking for the info again. And Allie responded and included her number in the email that way he could contact her in a way that she would be “quicker to respond” in the future. Matthew texted her and they started talking about their dogs and the conversation just went from there. They took their dogs on two play dates and one week later from meeting each other on Valentines day they went on their first date. After a full day of classes from 8am-7:30pm Matthew asked Allie if she would go out for some ice cream, and what was supposed to be a quick and casual ice cream date turned into a 5 hour long date where they adventured and drove around to all the cool spots in Western Carolina University and Matthew didn't end up dropping Allie back off to her apartment until 1 am. And they were inseparable ever since.
