We love each other for who we are, we are growing and learning together and always help others along the way.
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!
We met online in a black nerds group. We bonded over our love of God and anime. We lived about an hour away from each other, but continued to talk online until Jermaine asked me out. We had the most incredible first date and a few months later I became Jermaine’s first girlfriend and he became my first boyfriend.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our very first date was magical. We met at DePalmas Italian Restaurant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. When I pulled up to the restaurant, Jermaine was wearing a suit with roses in his hand. I have never received flowers from a man before. I was nervous and so was he. We met at 6pm and talked until the restaurant closed at 11pm. He walked me to my car and I gave him a kiss on the cheek. When I got in my car, I knew he was my person! Best date ever!!!
What would you do with $20,000?We would definitely give some money to cancer research and donate to our church. The rest of the money we would put towards our house which needs repairs. We are trying to have a baby now so money would go towards our growing household.
