We’re getting married!

We met in an intro class freshman year of college at GCU and talked mostly because Matthew wanted Lauren's notes. We were in the same friend group for that whole year and then grew apart, but Matthew would occasionally reply to Lauren's instagram stories over the next two and a half years (which he now claims was flirting). Then, after we both graduated in December 2023, we caught up over text one night and have talked every day since! We lived 5 minutes apart for three and a half years but have only dated while living 1000 miles apart. We will have been together long distance for a year and a half when we get married and Lauren moves to Michigan!
