We met and chatted online and then three days later TJ just *knew* that Hel was the one. We waited out COVID until we could finally meet one another in person. Constantly having each other set up on a phone, hanging out through a screen by watching anime or playing video games together...it's definitely tough having a long distance relationship. Completely worth it, as we have visited one another once a year since 2021. Cherishing and prioritizing each other is how we have accomplished such a long relationship. We are hoping to be living together by 2026 if everything goes as planned!

A big thank you to our immediate family and friends for always supporting us, and not judging us for our relationship through the internet...sleep calls and all. In this day and age, we have always encountered the "I don't know how you do that" responses whenever bringing up our relationship to someone new. Your support truly means the world to us, and we are forever grateful.
