Tyler & Amanda have known each other since they were kids. As time went on Tyler started to grow closer to Amanda's family, & soon Amanda & Tyler became good friends. They shared many fun times as good friends. Yes... just friends. To prove “just friends” Tyler got friend zoned not once, not twice, but three times LOL! They went on many trips & vacations together & always had lots of fun, but they never thought this one trip would change their relationship... It took place at an amusement park where Tyler again got friend zoned LOL! At the time Amanda wasn't looking for a romantic relationship, so she didn't want to like Tyler. Despite her thinking, that did not stop her feelings from growing. They started communicating a little more through text and became very fond of talking to one another. Then Covid hit, they couldn’t see each other in person for 8 Months! Did that stunt the growth of their friendship? Of course not! Tyler & Amanda continued to talk & eventually Tyler confessed his feelings to Amanda. Although Amanda did keep Tyler waiting and thinking before she replied, she eventually expressed the feeling was mutual. As time continued & Covid died down they picked right back up where they left off! They started to hang out more & grow closer, then eventually Tyler decided to go behind Amanda's back & ask her parents for permission to date her. He waited very patiently to ask Amanda to be his Girlfriend. Finally on July 4th, 2022 with a promise ring & a few other peace offerings Tyler officially asked Amanda to be his Girlfriend & of course Amanda said, "Yes!". They were able to learn more about each other and really see if this is who they wanted to be with forever. When the time was right & Tyler knew Amanda was the person he wanted to be with no matter what. Tyler asked for Amanda's Hand in marriage on April 6th, 2023. Both have had the most beautiful time & so many growable experiences together. Thank you for reading Our Story. We can't wait to add more to it with what's to come in our future!
