We met in what might seem to be classic rom-com fashion - as best man and maid of honor at our best friends’ wedding. It was love at first sight. Just kidding. We did meet as best man and maid of honor at our best friends’ wedding, but we barely spoke three sentences to each other. But that got us into the same friend group, and after a few months of hanging out periodically, we realized that we had some pretty significant things in common - we are both obsessed with books, we both overanalyze everything (especially bad movies) and we are both obnoxiously opinionated and (when it comes to books and bad movies) exceptionally garrulous. A deep friendship was formed, and one of us (Simon) developed a crush. Another trait we share is stubbornness, and because of this it took a little over 16 months before Simon managed to successfully put a ring on it. And the rest is an unwritten chapter.
