How We Met

Covid Love

Saira had returned from a trip to China and months later, was sent home from work due to concerns about the rapidly spreading COVID-19 virus. Bored and restless, she decided to download the popular dating app, Tinder, to pass the time. Ryan, a California native, had been on Tinder for a while with little success in finding a meaningful connection. But fate had something else in store for him. He was Saira's first match on the re-downloaded app, and he couldn't believe his luck. They hit it off right away, bonding over their shared love of animals and nerdy movies. As the COVID-19 lockdowns began, Saira and Ryan found themselves in the same situation. They were both stuck in Los Angeles with limited options for socializing and exploring the city. Ryan, ever the gentleman, would often stop by to say hello during Saira's daily walks with her friends. Soon, their interactions began to grow longer and more meaningful. Ryan found himself drawn to Saira's intelligence and her kind, compassionate nature, while Saira was enamored with Ryan's spirit and easygoing personality. Finally, as the lockdowns lifted and life slowly returned to some sense of normalcy, Ryan knew he had to make a move. He asked Saira out on a proper date, and she happily agreed. They dined al fresco at a trendy restaurant and talked long into the night. It was clear to both of them that they had something special. Today, Saira and Ryan are happily together, grateful for the unexpected way they met and the time they got to spend getting to know each other during those strange, unprecedented times. They know that their love story is unique, but they wouldn't have it any other way.
