When Chris and I met, we did not like each other. At all. Could barely stand to be in the same room. We were freshman in college and definitely mixed about as well as oil and water. But gradually, once we got over ourselves, things began to change. We started to warm up to each other. Dislike became tolerance, became a real and genuine friendship that is still the basis of our relationship. We started unofficially dating in July of 2015 but November 13th 2015 is when I woke up and realized I was in love. Chris, to his credit, didn't hold it against me that it took a little longer for me to realize than for him. Over the years our love has only gotten stronger, surviving long distance, family difficulties, travel, a global pandemic, the heartbreak of losing both his Grandma Rosa, and my beloved Gramma and Poppa. Through it all, we only love each other more. We are each other's favorite person. Every day is an adventure, and we can't wait to see what new ones the future holds for us
