We first met in the summer of 2018 and had our first date at Lolita in Boston. We both walked away that night knowing it was the best first date either of us had ever experienced. We spent a year together, but being young, it all felt a little too serious at the time, and we decided to part ways.

Even as life took us in different directions, new relationships, new cities, there was always a quiet yearning for one another. No matter where we were, we couldn't shake the feeling that our story wasn't finished.

In the summer of 2024, six years later, we finally found our way back. The timing was right, and we both knew instantly that we were meant to be together.

We feel incredibly lucky to have fallen in love not just once, but twice. Each time was completely different , but familiar. Getting a second chance at each other has been the greatest gift that we cherish every day.
