How we met

Rutgers Camden

If you ask me, we met back in Fall 2007 at the old Rutgers gym where Paul and John Moldovan were lifting/throwing weights around while I was trying to study during my 6 AM shift. I looked at him and John and asked if they could not make too much noise. We saw each other often on and off campus and became friends until he graduated the following year. If you ask Paul, we met at the black light party at his 107 house. He cant quite recall the night but it was a good time! We saw each other on and off campus until he graduated in 2009 and we lost touch. Years later, we finally were able to catch up again one summer night in Belmar back in 2015. It all started with a message saying " I saw you play golf near my house.. I have a membership at a club near me that I can give you lessons?"... I'm still waiting for those lessons ;)

The Proposal

Asbury Park, NJ

It was a hot summer night on July 5, 2019. I was getting over being sick when Paul suggested we take Digger to the dog beach in Asbury Park and pick up some Ralph's Italian Ice. We arrived to the dog beach and walked up and down the shore line just enjoying the waves crashing. As we turn back, I feel my hand being tugged back and as I turn around I hear him say " Te casarías conmigo?"- "Will you marry me?" I looked at him and could have sworn I replied when I heard him say "Well..?" I responded "Wait was it in my head?!...Yes!" We walked off the beach and ended a perfect night with Ralph's Italian Ice.
