Met on TikTok, fell in love instantly. From Australia to Texas, we defied distance & turned nearly two years apart into an epic love story
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
I’m Samantha, a TikTok creator who goes LIVE every day. A mutual friend told Brendan about my stream, and despite our 15-hour time difference, he finally caught one. He messaged me afterward, and our lives changed forever. We never knew what true love felt like until we found each other. For 21 months, we've talked every day through texts and FaceTime. When we finally met, our connection was even more incredible in person.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?The best part of our story was turning “one day” into reality. After months of dreaming, we finally spent two incredible months together in person. From waking up beside each other, sharing coffee, laughing over the little things, and building everyday routines, every moment proved our love was real. Through every challenge and the distance, we always chose each other…and those simple moments together became and will always remain our favorite memory.
What would you do with $20,000?We would put it towards moving one of us to the other permanently, or at the very least towards the next several visits to one another until we are able to close the distance permanently one way or the other.
