How did your love story begin?

We met on a gay dating site. We dated for a week and I had my young boyfriend move in with me the next weekend. We sold my old house and moved to Myrtle Beach where I retired. We have been in love ever since.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our favorite memory is what we make everyday. But my fondest memory is when we first met.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would take a vacation. We have not had one in years. Im older now and would like to travel to Italy before I die with my love.
