Like so many modern love stories, Venessa and Tyler’s didn’t begin with a dramatic glance across a crowded room, or a fateful encounter in a bookstore. Nope. It began on a dating app. Now, for those of you who’ve been happily married long enough to not know what that is—first, congratulations. Second, let me explain: dating apps have these things called “prompts.” Think of them like icebreaker questions. You fill in the blank, and it gives strangers on the internet a chance to say something clever—or, more often, painfully awkward. For example: Prompt: “My favorite food is…” Answer: “Pizza.” Response: “I know a great pizza place, want to go?” Easy, right? So Venessa had one of these prompts on her profile. Hers said: “I’m convinced that… my grandma wants me to find a man just so she can have another person help plant her vegetable garden.” Enter Tyler. His opening line? Not “you’re beautiful,” not “let me take you out.” No. Tyler shot his shot with: “Let’s go planting. Your grandma has her priorities straight.” That’s right, ladies and gentlemen—he didn’t flirt. He applied for a seasonal landscaping position. Now, Venessa wasn’t about to hire just anyone. She immediately started grilling him about his gardening credentials. Did he know the difference between a carrot plant and a weed? Could he properly weed whack? Would he commit to potato season? Somehow, instead of running away, Tyler doubled down. And from there, they bonded over a universal truth: parents and grandparents don’t have kids for the joy or the love… they have them for the free labor. And the rest, as they say, is history. Today, not only is Tyler part of Venessa’s life, but when they visit the Saari farm, he’s also on call for both Grandma and Grandpa’s yardwork needs. True love might be rare, but a man willing to weed your grandparents’ vegetable patch? That’s a keeper.
