Even after Megan moved to St. Petersburg, the two stayed in constant contact, texting and calling every day. Within just a few weeks, Ken found himself making weekend drives up to see her—soon enough, she was making the trip back to Fort Myers as well.

Ken had planned the perfect time and place to officially ask Megan to be his girlfriend in her new home of St. Pete, but sometimes, the best moments happen when you least expect them. While she was visiting in Fort Myers, there was a spontaneous, unplanned moment where everything just felt right—and that was it. They were officially together, and they couldn’t have been happier.

For over a year, they embraced long-distance life, taking turns making weekend trips or meeting somewhere in the middle, like Siesta Key. While Ken, who had only recently moved to Fort Myers, was ready to pack up again and move to St. Pete, something about Fort Myers still felt like home. After looking at a few apartments, Megan knew it too—it was time to come back.
