We matched and started talking on Tinder in August 2021. Our first date took place shortly thereafter in Freehold, NJ with tacos and then some various games at iPlay. We quickly hit it off and ended up just sitting at the venue's pub until time escaped us and iPlay was closing up.

There has been so many great dates that we have been on in the past three years, but our favorite will always be our second date when we saw A Day to Remember in Philadelphia. We both share a love for similar music, so tickets to see a band we both have enjoyed listening to for years with great seats, already put this date at the top of our list. But the trip there was also memorable, since we had plenty of time to get know each other during our two hour drive to and from Philadelphia. At the end of the night, we both knew we were meant to be together. Our first dance will be to "Everything We Need" by A Day To Remember, which coincidentally played during our next two dates completely by chance. So this date and song will always hold a special place in our hearts.

The most important thing in our relationship is quality time with each other and our two dogs. We pretty much base our lives around the pups, going to various parks, the beach, and sometimes outdoor breweries with them.

Our favorite thing to do for date nights is going to downtown Red Bank or Keyport or going on a hike or walk at one of our near by parks. But on our busy weeknights after work and the gym, we usually take turns trying new recipes and cooking for each other. We usually spend the rest of the night watching a captivating TV show like X files or the Sopranos.

We also love to travel whether it be a weekend trip to visit family and friends outside of NJ, or someplace abroad to explore new places and cultures.
