Sometime, in the fall of 2018, Tim sent a message to Alicia on Instagram to let her know that he thought she was really pretty. Alicia thanked him for the compliment but let him know that she was seeing someone at the time. He understood and wished her well, and they went their separate ways.
About 6 months later, Tim decided to messaged Alicia again, and at this point, she was no longer seeing anyone. Through some casual conversation, Tim had figured this out and continued to get to know her for a couple of weeks before finally asking her on a date. He took her to Outback Steakhouse, and the rest is history!
