Myrianna and Edem like to joke that they met twice. The first time was on Bumble, where they chatted easily and hit it off, until Myrianna abruptly deleted her account and unintentionally ghosted him. Six months later, fate (or Tinder) brought them back together. They matched again, and although Myrianna did not recognize him at first, their conversation felt oddly familiar. When she finally asked if they knew each other, Edem replied, “Yes… you ghosted me six months ago.” That second chance was all they needed. From early on, they both knew they had found their person. Three years into their relationship, they moved to Lawrence, Kansas when Myrianna began graduate school. Right before their fifth year together, Edem surprised her with the proposal of her dreams, thoughtful, heartfelt, and perfectly them. Through every stage, he has been kind, compassionate, and unwaveringly supportive of her goals. And it all began with two matches, one love story, and a very memorable “You ghosted me.”
