Benjamin and I met in high school. We went to a small boarding school in Tilton, New Hampshire where he was a hockey player and I was on the club hockey team (that he helped coach). He clearly couldn't resist my amazing hockey skills (or at least that's what I like to think). We started dating halfway through our senior year and the rest was history! We graduated from the University of Tampa together in 2020 and he popped the question on June 18th, 2021 in Portland, ME. Portland will forever have a special place in our hearts now. After dating for 5 1/2 years, I guess he finally decided that he wanted to keep me forever (despite my mom advising him to put me back where I came from... lol) We can not wait to become husband and wife next September and live together as forever best friends.
