How We Met

September 1, 2014

Our mutual friend Maisie was hanging out with her boyfriend and guys. Rod noticed her scrolling Instagram and came across a picture of Yuri. He asked Maisie how she knew Yuri and she told him that Yuri was in a sorority called aKDPhi and one of her closest friends was her Line Sister. Maisie knew Rod's personality being quiet and somewhat introverted and decided to take matters into her own hands. She reached out to Yuri and sent Rod's Instagram to her to ask if Yuri recognized him or was interested in getting his number. Yuri thought Rod was cute and told her she could pass her number along to Rod. Rod reached out to Yuri and they texted the whole day until he got off work. He asked, "Are you hungry? Do you like Chipotle?" Anyone who knows Yuri knows she loves food - the immediate answer was yes. Although they remained best friends for 3 years, they grew to begin to see each other as someone neither of them could live without.
