2020 was a world wind of a year for most people and it was no different for the two lovebirds.

After deciding to give online dating a try in late 2019 and a bunch of failed conversations later, sat in her grandmas bedroom during the first lockdown, Danielle was ready to give up until one fateful day Marcus messaged her out of the blue asking if she wanted to go for coffee sometime once the ban was lifted. She agreed, though her gut told her it was actually a date she was just excited to see her friend again after 5 years. The next morning while doing the usual morning scroll through tinder who appears but Marcus so she swiped and before long “it’s a match” flashed across the screen. Her gut feeling was right and they began talking everyday.

A couple of weeks later as the announcement of lockdown easing, and after the first “I love you”s had been said they began arranging for their first date. Danielle made a cute little set up in her home with candle light and a nice meal.

They were there for each other through thick and thin and living together came naturally. The rest is history.
