In the digital realm of dating apps, fate decided to reunite two hearts that had already brushed paths once before.

Unknown to Emily, her and Stephen had crossed paths during their time interning at Lennox International in 2017. Their shared workplace should have been the perfect opportunity for an introduction, but fate had other plans, and Stephen's focus on work kept him from introducing himself to Emily.

Fast forward a few years, and both Stephen and Emily graduated from college and moved into the "adulting" chapter of their lives. Little did they know that the dating app "Hinge" would reignite their long-lost connection. As Stephen scrolled through profiles one evening, he came across Emily's face. He immediately recognized her as the girl from the internship and swiped right, hoping that Emily would do the same.

And she did. When Emily saw Stephen's profile, she had no idea that they interned together years earlier, but his interests and funny profile convinced her to swipe right. "It's a Match!"

Over the next week their online conversation flowed effortlessly. They quickly realized the missed connection from their time at Lennox International and laughed about how life was giving them a second chance.

Their first date was a Chuy's To-Go picnic at Addison Circle Park in September of 2020. Throughout the night, the nerves quickly settled and an inexplicable comfort grew. As they reached the end of the night, they both knew that something special had blossomed between them. Fate had led them to each other not once, but twice, and this time, they were not going to let it go.
