Even though we have a 20 year age gap, we're both pretty youthful. We're also both child free and would rather have fur babies.
We would like to thank you for supporting John and Marissa in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
One early October night in 2020, we met at our favorite bar. Somehow, we started talking about old wrestling and how he used to work in a haunted house in his hometown. That night, we were upfront about our ages; he was out celebrating his 50th birthday I told him I was 29. Then, he asked me to go have dinner next weekend. I gave him my number, but didn't hear from him until a week before Halloween. Fast forward to the week before Halloween, we met again, fixed numbers and started going out.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Taking 2 road trips in a year together. In 2024, we had our first vacation together. We went to visit his sister in Colorado to say goodbye to her. We went a second time that Labor Day weekend to make up for missing her funeral, but we looked at a lot of old family photos. I'd love for us to travel together some more.
What would you do with $20,000?I'd love for some of it to help me go to school, maybe a down payment on a new truck or maybe a house. We hope to get married on Halloween 2026, it could help us get a decent location for a wedding.
