It's a bit cliche, but it all began in the beginning of 2024. We met on Facebook. I had posted something in a social group not thinking much of it. Then, out of nowhere, this beautiful girl with eyes that light up the sky commented on my post.

I couldn't help myself--I slid into her DMs. From the very first exchange, the conversation just flowed effortlessly. At one point, she sent me a heart emoji, and I felt butterflies fluttering in my stomach. I sent one back, and she later confessed it had the same effect on her.

We hadn't met in person yet, but something between us clicked. The late night talks, the sweet good morning and good night texts, and the random check-ins throughout the day--it all felt so natural, like we'd known each other forever.

By December 15th, just a day before her birthday, we couldn't wait any longer. I flew out to see her and when we finally met in person, it was as if no time or space had ever separated us. It was like meeting a piece of my soul that I'd been missing all along.

From that moment on, I knew--we were destined to be together for eternity.
