Start of Our Love Story

It was June of 2020 and Rachel and Chris were in COVID lockdown. In the depths of boredom, they both decided that there was no better time to try online dating in Pittsburgh. They matched on Bumble and met for coffee. Both nervous, they each got a hot coffee on a 85 degree morning. The date went perfect: Chris was a little late from traffic, Chris told Rachel he was about to move across the state, and Chris could not stop profusely sweating the entire time. After Rachel ghosted him for 6 weeks, in September of that year, they reconnected and started dating long distance - the rest is history!
