Connect How did your love story begin?

It begin by playing a video game. My best friend cc wanted me to join, and said he had someone we can play with. We started talking from there and he was my friend at first and was there from me from my lowest point to me finding my happiness again. He is from Oregon and I am from Chicago. We knew this journey would be difficult, but every time we’re together, it makes what we’re going through so worth it. He really is my person and my soulmate. With a huge heart, we were meant for each other.

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

My favorite memory was when he surprised visited me for my birthday. That week I was feeling really down and knew my birthday wasn’t the best thing I wanted to celebrate. He told me he couldn’t make it and I was upset but understood at the same time. My friend cc told me to go over his house since I left something there the other day, and Bryant was there waiting for me with flowers in his hand and to tell me that my Birthday should be celebrated no matter what. This is only one memory.

What would you do with $20,000?

Bryant and I have been talking about saving up to move out and be together. The plan is for him to come here to Chicago, but he is also helping his parents with many things financially. I help my mother with my grandma as a caretaker and just been working to save a little more to get a little place. I would for sure decide this money with him and see what would be best to do and maybe finally have a place together after all this time. Thank you for listening to our story
