Neil and Becca met at 18 Winspear in August of 2014. Becca was eighteen at the time, and was just starting her new college lifestyle... literally it was the first week of school. Neil was a junior with all of the charm, and handsomeness that comes with being nineteen years old. That night, Becca and her friends made their way down to UB south campus to venture into the world of college frat parties. Little did she know, that she would meet a man, with stunning blue eyes and a welcoming smile on the way back to the bus station from the party. Neil was on the lawn of a Winspear Ave house with his friends and a sign that read “You’re a 10”. As he pointed at Becca, both parties were laughing at the joke of it all when she decided to confront him. Becca and her friends intrigued the group enough to have a drink where she looked around expectantly for Neil to start a conversation. She found him at the bottom of the porch stairs, introduced herself, and asked for his phone number. He smiled and happily fulfilled her request so that she could (to his surprise) text him the very next day.
On our first date we went to Ted's for dinner, and played a couple rounds of mini-golf. We say "a couple" because it really was 1.5 rounds when Neil realized Becca was no good. That night he also brought Becca an extra sweatshirt for "in case she got cold". Little did he know that he had done just the right thing because Becca is ALWAYS cold! On the way home Becca gave Neil the wrong directions, we almost ended up going over the Grand Island Bridge, and she missed curfew...oops! Later that fall, Neil and Becca went their separate ways.. but keep reading because this isn't were the story ends...
After a brief hiatus, it was February of 2015 - Neil and Becca found themselves brought together again in the Alumni Arena parking lot - post workout. We decided that we should hangout sometimes... as friends (ya right!). So, we set our second first date at Café Aroma in Downtown Buffalo for later in the week and thennnnn the rest is history!
