The Very Beginning

Although we grew up in the same small town and went to the same high school, our story is different than a typical "high school sweetheart" romance. Neither of us can think of a time when we spoke to each other in high school. We knew of each other, saw each other in the hallways, but ran in different circles and were in different grades.

The Actual Beginning

Although we were living in different states at the time, we both came home to visit our families over Thanksgiving in 2021. As fate would have it, we ended up matching on Tinder and starting messaging back and forth. We quickly realized we had many common interests and frequently bonded over our love for our cats, Nellie and Winston.
