Julian and Nastoshea met through mutual friends Jazz and Joe back in June of 2011. They were both currently in different spaces at the time, but agreed to just be friends. Julian and Nastoshea remained acquaintances for a few years talking off and on. They went out a few times and spent time getting to know each other but nothing transpired until 2015.
When they started dating they both had made a commitment to God not to enter into another dating relationship lightly. They were not just entering into a relationship just to be dating. They were both praying for commitment, marriage and a covenant relationship. They both had gone through a few rocky patches and God had sustained them. They prayed and asked God for guidance on the next steps in there relationship. God revealed to Julian who and what Nastoshea was supposed to be in November of 2015 and so he began to pursue her. Julian knew that he was entering into the relationship to gain a wife.
Julian planned the proposal and did something that made Nastoshea's Heart skip a beat. She had no idea that on December 17, 2019 that Julian was going to ask for her hand in marriage. However, her God-Father, Mother and Julian's Mother knew what was going to happen. On December 17,2018 Julian and Nastoshea's prayers were answered. Nastoshea said Yes to advancing to Mrs.Vance after a beautiful marriage proposal at a Carolina Panthers football game. Julian surprised her with a proposal on the live screen and had it recorded. He got down on one knee and asked for her hand in marriage! Over the course of their dating and courtship, Julian and Nastoshea have begun to learn patients, forgiveness, love and keeping God first. They have learned through the hardships, trails, hurts, breakups and happy moments that Love is a commitment and not a feeling. They are ready to be forever committed to loving God, each other and there families. "Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things. Love Never Fails. (1 Corinthians 13:4-8a)". Julian and Nastoshea are and will forever be The Victorious Vance's!!!!!!!
