We met at Paninis in Akron back in 2004. We started dating and eventually moved to Florida together with Lucas in 2006. In 2007 we went our seperate ways (but not before he came to the Pittsburgh bar I worked at and asked me to marry him in the parking lot by my car-I declined). We kept in touch over the years and in November of 2019 I flew up to him in PA to see him. We started dating after that visit, he moved back down here to Florida in December of that year. We survived Covid AND didnt hate each other after quarantine. After being decline a few times he finally asked me to marry him again on March 27th, 2021. ❤️ Whether we lost phone numbers-and he wasnt much of a social media guy back then either- or didn’t talk for months/years, we always reconnected eventually. We found ourselves having conversations like we talked everyday. My grandma always told me “ What is meant to be will always come back around eventually”.
