It feels like exhaling after holding your breath for too long. It brings peace and happiness along with safety. It feels like home.
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!
Neither of us was looking for love. I had given up after watching my parents' difficult marriage and divorce, and he had lost hope after being cheated on. Then we matched on Tinder. What started as one date turned into forever—we never stopped choosing each other. Seven years later, we're still building a life together. Our love found us when we had both stopped searching, and that's what makes our story so special.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?It's hard to pick just one favorite memory because every season of our relationship has given us something to treasure. We've learned that it's not the big milestones that define our love—it's the everyday moments, the laughter, the adventures, and simply coming home to each other. Somehow, every day together becomes another favorite memory.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use it to build the life we've been working so hard for—a forever home and the opportunity to finally start our family. We've put that dream on hold because of financial reasons, and this would give us the chance to begin the next chapter together with a little more peace of mind and a lot of hope for the future.
