How Did We Meet?

It all goes back to Spring 2013

As some of you may know, Virginia Tech’s black community was very small years ago, so coming across almost every black student that attended was bound to happen lol. With that said, we gravitated towards the same people and grew to have the same group of mutual friends. In that group of mutual friends, only a few had a car on campus as a freshman and Tony was one of them. Not only did he have a car, he had the nicest car to drive to parties and show off lol. So with Tony being our group of friends’ designated driver, we would hangout and see each other a lot. Of course we thought each other were attractive but it took us a while to say anything because we didn’t want to change the dynamic of our friend group. Well one day the friend group was supposed to hangout and no one showed up except us two. We watched a movie and talked and talked and talked until the sun came up. It felt like it was a scene out of a movie and we’ve been talking to each other, everyday, since Spring 2013. Shoutout to Virginia Tech for this love story!
