Monica and Mike met during their 1L year of law school, where they were in the same classes and study group. Mike was the sweet shy nerdy guy, Monica was the extroverted trial teamer. After years of being friends and classmates, Mike caught Monica's attention with his sweet smile and consistent kindness to everyone around him. After weeks of trying to get his attention, he FINALLY got the message that she was interested (only after not-so-subtly staring him down in every class). Their first date was to a Solar Bears Hockey Game. After a fun time, and a bonding over a love of hot sauce, Monica and Mike became inseparable. After 1 year and 3 months of dating, Mikey popped the question in Downtown Mount Dora.
