Like many couples during covid time, Shannon and Luke both swiped right on Hinge. Shannon had recently moved to Baltimore from Delaware and wasn't sure if she was ready to start dating in this city. Luke quickly persuaded her that the men in Baltimore weren't all that bad.

After chatting on the dating app for a day or two, Luke asked Shannon out on a date. Shannon was skeptical being that she was in a new city and didn't know many people in case Luke tried to kidnap her or wasn't who he appeared to be on the app. She actually kept the fact that she was seeing someone in Baltimore from her family, so she didn't worry them.

Their first date went great and so did their second. They quickly started spending more and more of their free time together doing different things around Baltimore so Shannon could become more comfortable in her new home. Shannon soon met all of Luke's friends that lived nearby in Virginia and Luke met Shannon's friends in Delaware. Friends and family approved of their match and cheered them on as they continued to date.
