How We Met- Bride Edition

It all started out as just a girl bored at home and realizing if I wanted to have someone then I had to do something and not wait for someone to climb through my window lol. So I signed up for a dating site. Not one to really speak first, I decided different actions will get different results. So I hit up this "light skin" (sorry babe lol- per Rick he's brown skin) guy whose picture was him in the gym showing all his muscle off and we actually started talking on the app. Those app convos moved to texting and calls, then HE GHOSTED ME! Lol for 3 days he went m.i.a. and I called and texted. I told himself this is my last time calling and if he doesn't answer then I was done. Shockingly, he answered. We started hanging out and having fun and no it wasn't perfect, but it was good. Then after a year and half, he was gone. Still friends, but not the same, but I knew he was who I wanted. I told myself it'll take time, but it'll come back. 2 years later, and guess what... he came back and the rest has been history. The laughs, adventures, getting a dog, moving states, and nothing can stop us. More adventures to come and a lifetime of laughs and traveling awaits. 💙💙💙

How We Met- Groom Edition

We met during a time when I was living in despair. I had very little hope and confidence. One lonely day, I decided to create an online dating profile account in search for a friend but instead I found the love of my life. I can admit, I wasn't sure at first but as time progressed, I began to fall in love with your mind, body and spirit. Eventhough you only were attractive to me for being "light skinned", I still admired your spirit and the effort you put into showing me love. During this journey, you've seen me struggle through the worst times and continued to support me. Not only have you been a great partner, but a great friend and I will always love you till the end of time.
