Kyle and I met in very non-traditional way. No meet cutes, no bars... just a conversation about what belongs on pizza on an app with a bad rap... Tinder. So without further a-do, here is our Tinderella story.
Kyle and I matched on tinder during the early stages of covid, when toilet paper was as good as gold. If you know anything about Kyle, he is a very forward person, much like myself, shocking I know. His message read, do you want me to hit you with a corny pick-up line, or can we skip all that shit.
With every business shut down, this left us with limited options for a first date, so we opted for a simple walk with our dogs and coffee in hand. Well this first date was something else... Kyle quickly turned from a stranger to me knowing just about everything about his last 10 years. Talk about oversharing. After we walked back to my car, I peeled out of there quicker than a person could catch covid. Obviously that didn't scare me enough because our friendship continued and we hung out almost every other day.
A few months of late night drives listening to music, trips to the mountains and lots of ice cream dates with our dogs, we started to grow something more than a friendship. After my many attempts of trying to push him away and denial of feelings, he asked me to be his girlfriend while we were out star gazing in the country.
Throughout our 5 year relationship, we have made so many memories. From our adventures of driving cross country to Ontario to meet his family, Invermere, Drumheller, Cuba, Tofino/Vancouver Island and countless trips to the mountains to explore the beauty and of course fishing. In that 5 years we took a less traditional path and we welcomed our daughter, Scottie Elizabeth Fraser, into the world and grew our little family.
Becoming new parents only added to the foundation of our love for each other. Kyle had picked out the ring, asked my father for his permission, planned how he was going to propose and in Kyle fashion, threw that plan out the window and proposed in our home out of excitement. Which was for the better because I was starting to put the puzzle pieces together. It was perfectly imperfect.
Swiping right to now saying our I do's. We couldn't be more excited to see what the rest our lives have planned for us.
