Our story officially begins 3 years ago, but DeeDee's begins long before that. In December of 2018, her friends convinced her to finally get a dating app, Hinge, they offered to even make it all for her. BUT there was a catch. She had to keep it for at least a year to give it a real shot.

DeeDee agreed and the search for a meaningful relationship began. BOY did she have to date a lot of frogs to get to Matt. So many in fact that she created a spreadsheet with ratings and superlatives (looking at you Santa the sloth) to make the pain of many bad dates enjoyable.

Just when she was ready to call it quits. She matched with this really nice looking guy, Matt. We matched on Matt's birthday and his first message was "It's my birthday and I matched with you?! sheesh"

We went on our first date 2 weeks later, 10/16/2019. Matt wore a light blue shirt, jeans and brown shoes. We went to ML Rose and ate burgers. DeeDee talked about Disney for 2 hours straight, and stuffed her face with a burger. Afterward , DeeDee was sure she liked him but thought she blew it with all that Disney talk! So she texted Matt as soon as she got home, before Matt made it back to Mt Juliet. They scheduled a second date for later that week. 4 dates later, Matt asked her to be his girlfriend. From that moment, the rest was history.
