In April 2017, Dali and Yeshua's young love story began to unfold while attending the University of Puerto Rico in Mayaguez. Fate had its hand in their meeting, orchestrated by the thread of humor that connected them through a mutual friend. Little did they know that this initial introduction would blossom into a love that transcended time and distance.

It was Dali's impatience, fueled by the excitement of a

potential connection, that prompted her to take the initiative and send Yeshua the first message (thanks Instagram dms!). From that moment on, their conversations sparkled with shared laughter and a growing sense of connection. Yeshua couldn't help but notice Dali's charm, and his heart took a leap when their eyes met while out on a romantic dinner– he knew then that she was the one.

As the days turned into weeks, Yeshua discovered the depth of Dali's character. Her family values and compassionate heart resonated with him, forming the foundation of a love that would stand the test of time. Dali, a culinary virtuoso, delighted Yeshua's taste buds with her delicious creations, making every shared meal a cherished moment (but dont worry Yeshua can cook too!).

Despite only a few weeks into their journey, Yeshua's devotion

became evident during a pivotal moment. Dali, experiencing a painful back spasm, found unexpected support as Yeshua picked her up and guided her down the steps. He spent the entire day by her side, revealing a steadfast commitment that solidified Dali's belief that Yeshua was the one.

Their love story faced a new chapter when Dali pursued her

education in Florida at the University of Central Florida. The distance only strengthened their bond, with Yeshua making regular visits throughout the year. Love knows no boundaries, and theirs endured, a testament to the resilience of their connection.

In 2021, the couple's love led them to Philadelphia, where

Yeshua made the decision to accompany Dali as she completed her final years of medical school at the Temple School of Podiatric Medicine. He had just graduated from UPRM from Industrial Engineering and he found a job in Philadelphia to be able to move closer to Dali. Together, they embraced the challenges and triumphs of this new chapter, and their shared journey became even more complete when they adopted "Miss Mia," a Boston terrier mix who quickly became an integral part of their family.

On May 27th, 2023, surrounded by the city lights of Philadelphia and the embrace of family, Yeshua chose to make their love story official. In a moment filled with joy and anticipation, he proposed to Dali, sealing their

commitment to a future filled with love, laughter, and the unwavering support they had come to rely on. The journey that began with a sense of humor had evolved into a beautiful tapestry of shared experiences, resilience, and an enduring love that would last a lifetime.
