Trinity and Traice's story serves as a testament to the idea that true love can be found with just a simple swipe.
It was a chilly winter evening on December 1, 2018, when Trinity and Traice's paths intertwined. Little did they know that this particular night would mark the beginning of an incredible journey.
On this day, Trinity was set to play her guitar at local coffee shop, the Kettle, in small-town Beloit, home to around 5,000 people. Meanwhile, Traice and his father were traveling to Beloit for a hunting trip. You would think that the Trin and Traice would cross paths while out grocery shopping or while eating out at a restaurant. But fate had a different plan for them both.
Now here's where it gets interesting. Trinity, an active user of the dating app Tinder, stumbled upon Traice's profile. She couldn't believe her eyes. "No way," she thought, "a guy like that in a small town like this and he's around my age?" There he was, in his profile picture, casually leaning against a white Jeep Wrangler, one of Trinity's current obsessions at the time, with a physique that could make heads turn.
While Trinity had jumped on Tinder that day merely for fun, Traice found himself perched up in a deer stand, waiting for a deer that never seemed to show up. Growing increasingly bored, he decided to open the Tinder app. There Trinity's profiled appeared, and Traice was interested. They both swiped right, and a match was made.
Excitedly, they planned to meet later that night, after Trinity's performance at the Kettle. Due to the local police rumored to be more strict towards outsiders, Traice mentioned that his father would be chauffeuring him into town. To Kenny, Traice's dad, Trinity was just the online tutor Traice had found on Google. After all, who would want to explain to their dad they were going to meet up with a girl, right?
Little did they know that this casual hangout would be the starting point of a remarkable love story that would span over almost five years, filled with laughter, tears, and the challenges of a long-distance relationship. Within the mere two weeks of dating, Trinity and Traice were quick to realize that they had found their soulmates and wasted no time in professing their love for each other.
Their story serves as a reminder that love can transcend distance, and that sometimes, all it takes is a simple swipe to find your true soulmate.
