We met in the most romantic way possible: on a dating app. I went into the date unprepared and without any expectations, which was unusual for me, and Michael went into the date feeling nervous, which was surprising to him. Call it perfect timing or the universe aligning, but something was different that day. We had the most wonderful date talking for hours and have been sure of each other ever since. October 2nd, 2021 was a special day, so we decided to celebrate our marriage on October 2nd, 2025 - on the anniversary of when we met.
