Charis:

I was always curious to know more about who Eduardo was, but figured he was off limits for a while, thinking we would be better as just friends and considering that he liked someone I knew at some point. I even told myself that I would NEVER date him at one point. (lol, how silly of me)

Most of our friends left at the start of a school year, which lead to us naturally hanging out more one on one. We even happened to join the same gym at the same time. One night he asked me to get a drink and I told my friend later, "I think I accidentally went on a date with Eduardo!" Well, fast forward a few months, and I am praying to God that Eduardo would say something first. I knew I liked him, but didn't want to have to be the person to say something first, though I was willing to. I asked God if Eduardo would be willing to step up and say something.

Not 3 days later, Eduardo texted me that he was thinking about me, I answered to his question that yes, I was thinking about him, and the next day we went out to dinner. I am still learning how differences can unite and teach us more about each other, although I normally just get frustrated. haha. I have never experienced God's love in the way that I have with this man. The way he provides for me, comforts me, and speaks truth to me, is all I ever needed, and more than words can say.

Eduardo:

When I first saw Charis, I just thought she was a nice girl. And although we never spent much time together, little by little I realized she had some really good qualities: her physical beauty, her personality, and a heart ready to serve God. So, after meeting her a few times, one day I was sitting down on my bed and thought, "Wait a minute, I really like this girl! "So, after texting back and forth, she accepted my invitation to dinner. That night, I began writing our story together. And now you know how it is going, haha. I'm so thankful with God, very happy and honored to marry her, as well as to continue writing our story.

En español:

Cuando vi a Charis por primera vez solamente pensé que era una chica maja. Y aunque nunca pasábamos mucho tiempo juntos, poco a poco me di cuenta que ella tenía muy buenas cualidades: su belleza física, su personalidad, y un corazón dispuesto a servir a Dios. Así que, luego de coincidir algunas veces, un día me senté en mi cama y pensé, “espera un momento, ¡Esta chica me gusta de verdad!” Así que después de intercambiar algunos mensajes de texto, ella aceptó una invitación a cenar. Esa noche comencé a escribir nuestra historia juntos. Y pues ahora ya conocen cómo va la historia, ja ja. Estoy muy agradecido con Dios, muy feliz y honrado de casarme con ella, así como también, de seguir escribiendo nuestra historia.
