Surprise, surprise...we met at the gym! The first time Nate saw Bethany she was walking into the gym, supposedly wearing a red dress (she doesn't own a red dress), and he did a double take. Shortly thereafter, Bethany noticed Nate for the first time while he was dangling 15 ft in the air completing a legless rope climb and reportedly also did a double take. She went home that night and told her roommate, "there's a new hottie at the gym". A few days later, a friend from the gym told Bethany that Nate was a Physical Therapist and that she should make an appointment to see him for her injured elbow. Coincidentally, Bethany's doctor had already written her a script for PT at Nate's office. After a couple of weeks they found themselves warming up for the same class and Nate finally made the move and introduced himself! A few encounters and conversations later, Bethany slyly mentioned she had an injured elbow and had a script to get PT at Nate's office. Nate told her that he would gladly take a look at her elbow. They found themselves chatting more and more after class at the gym and would consistently be the last ones there helping to close up. One night, Nate was walking Bethany to her car (what a gentleman!) and finally asked her out on a date :) He picked her up that Sunday, Bethany toting her signature baked goods in hand, and took her to Union Market for "brinner" (breakfast for dinner, one of her favorites). The conversation flowed so easily, that they couldn't wait to schedule a second date. Nate invited Bethany over to his condo for the Cowboys vs. Eagles game that Thursday. Knowing the key to a man's heart, she showed up well prepared with brisket and pulled pork nachos from the best BBQ joint in the DC area. At that point, Nate knew she was a keeper and decided that he would evaluate her elbow. Ultimately, he cured her by plunging a dry needle nearly 3 inches deep into her neck. Bethany too realized that Nate was a keeper, and the rest is history!!!
