Like many modern love stories, ours began with a swipe — on Hinge, of all places. When we first connected, Tuan was living his best life on vacation in Cancun, and Mai was feeling a little skeptical (can you blame her?). Mai wasn’t quite convinced Tuan was the “church boy” he claimed to be… but, spoiler alert: he absolutely is — and then some. Despite the long-distance start and a few doubts, curiosity won. For our first date, we went for boba and Korean BBQ — a combination that clearly set the tone for fun, flavor, and a lot of laughter. At one point during dinner, he had the staff sing her a surprise happy birthday song, just for laughs. Turns out, Mai's birthday had actually been two weeks earlier — so Tuan wasn’t that far off! From that first night, things just clicked. The conversations, the laughter, the connection — it all came naturally. What started as a chance encounter quickly turned into something deeply meaningful. Now here we are — still laughing, still loving, and ready to start our forever.
