Rashmi & Gary met the old-fashioned way: on Hinge! Ever the economist, Gary knew the market forces at play and supplied the perfect introduction, heaping praise on Rashmi's beloved pup, Niko.

Both grizzled veterans of app dating, they cautiously held their first date in neutral territory: at Deep Dive, a Seattle cocktail bar located precisely between their offices. But the meeting proved fruitful and by the end of the night, they agreed to further talks.

The next few weeks were a whirlwind tour of each other's lives, and before the first month was through, Gary asked if he could leave a toothbrush and a change of clothes. And another change of clothes, and a suitcase, and could he please have a bathroom drawer?

And he never left :)
