We fell in love almost immediately and 2 and half years later we got married. We are both the weirdest people we know.

We met in the unconventional way, Tinder. However, we fell for each other right away. It became serious when he asked me to look after one of his cats and I fell in love with “My Sweetest Thing” just like I had with my husband. He then moved in with his other cat Buddy and we now have nightly family time. We laugh every day and our arguments are short lived. He is the best thing to ever happen to me.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?This is a difficult question, there are so many. But if I were to choose one, it would be when he asked me to be his girlfriend. We’re in our mid thirties so it was weird but sweet. He was nervous and just in our kitchen swinging his legs when he said,” Ellyse, do you want to be my girlfriend?”. I in my sarcastic humour said , “You? “๐คจ But obviously said yes.
What would you do with $20,000?We plan to move to Albania.
