John and Emily matched on Tinder back in February of 2020. Soon after, everyone was sent home from school while COVID-19 was running rampant. With John living in North Carolina and Emily up in New Jersey, things seemed bleak. But if luck would have it, Emily got a job down in Greenville, NC and remembered that cute guy who lived in the same state. Next thing you know, they reconnected and haven't been apart since. Driving 3.5 hours every other weekend quickly turned into living together, getting engaged and buying a house.
