Wendy and Tyler met while working at ArcLight Cinemas Hollywood. They soon became friends and bonded over their shared loves of writing and How I Met Your Mother. One day, Wendy took her cousin Vanessa to see a movie at the theater. Everywhere they went in the theater (from the lobby to the concessions stand) Tyler kept appearing (even when he was supposed to be working on a different floor.) Wendy joked that Tyler was following her and he hasn't left her side since.
