Kyle and Kennedy met in the summer of 2020 where they became good friends. Kyle soon joined the military that October where they had to say goodbye. Those first 3 months of bootcamp, Kyle and Kennedy wrote only letters back and forth to communicate where they soon realized they had feelings for one another. When those long 3 months were over, Kyle came home on leave for a quick 2 weeks before he had to return back to Chicago. It was then, Kyle and Kennedy decided to try long distance. Through the first 2 1/2 years of their relationship, Kyle has been stationed in San Diego, California and they have seen each other roughly 7 times. The rest of the time away from each other, they relied on facetime to communicate throughout the days. After 4 long underways, lots of facetiming, communication through emails, and many hard goodbyes, Kyle proposed to Kennedy on August 3rd, 2022. Kyle is now out of the military and they live in Wisconsin with their dog, Teton! They are super excited to see what their future holds in this next journey!
