When I think about my life, all of my favorite stories are with my partner because from the moment we met my life had really just begun.
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
My love story began like most- with a notification on my phone. After seeing my profile on a dating app, Emilia slid into my DMs on Instagram, asking me on a date. No one had ever slid into my DMs until Emilia. Which meant I had to accept the date. She was the first woman I went on a date with after I moved to Los Angeles in 2021. We’ve been inseparable ever since.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?I’m a type one diabetic, and my disability doesn’t typically affect my day-to-day life. In 2023, we had tickets to see our favorite artist in concert, but during the show, my blood sugar plummeted. The next day, she surprised me with tickets to see her again since I missed part of the show due to my diabetes.
What would you do with $20,000?Right now I’m saving up to buy my girlfriend an engagement ring. We want to get married and start our own little family, but in order to do that, we need the money and resources for either IVF, surrogacy or adoption. We would use that money toward family planning.
