René and I met through a dating app called "Mutual." We began talking to each other on April 26th. I immediately enjoyed our conversations. Later that afternoon while talking to him, alone in my library, I suddenly said out loud, "I need to meet this guy!" and then immediately followed that up with, "Wait, what!?!" By mid-morning the next day René had asked me out on a date and I had said "definitely." We finally met each other in person on May 18th. We immediately hit it off and left the date looking forward to seeing each other again despite the 132 mile distance between us. We quickly fell in love and it wasn't long before we had decided that we wanted to spend the rest of eternity with each other. René asked me to marry him on August 10th and I was so incredibly happy to say "yes!"
