Connect How did your love story begin?

Our love story began when we locked eyes at a party and smiled at each other. He saw me walk outside with my friend and waited by the door hoping I would return so he could talk to me. As soon as i walked by in he grabbed my attention and introduced himself. We talked for pretty much the rest of the party and it was an instant connection until suddenly he had to leave. We didn’t talk for a bit then out of the blue he invited me on a fraternity trip with him and I said yes.

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

Our favorite would have to be our trip to New York together. We went out on a limb when we first started dating and decided to road trip to New York for Christmas. In that trip we truly got to know each other on a deeper level. Laughs and tears were both shared and it was a monumental weekend that we love to reflect back on often. It helped to strengthen us for the better and was all around a blast. It was when we stared to become not just a couple but also each other’s best friend.

What would you do with $20,000?

With being a young couple fresh out of college it has been a struggle trying to figure out what our next steps. We really would love the opportunity to get a townhouse or an apartment together and we would use that money towards that’s. We are so excited for this next chapter of not only our life but our relationship and that money would help us to start the first page.
