After almost giving up on love, our souls were guided to each other when we needed it the most. We love each other unconditionally.
We would like to thank you for supporting Rosalyn and Damian 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.
We initially met on Tinder and quickly started talking on there. After two weeks of talking on the phone and FaceTiming nightly, Damian drove up to my city to meet me. We went out to dinner at our now favorite Italian restaurant and shared quiet, vulnerable moments under the stars, slow-dancing to our favorite oldies. We quickly fell in love and immediately saw a future with each other and were instantly committed to each other and our growth as a couple.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Early in our relationship, one night we were on the phone and spent seven hours staying up getting to know each other. We had been so invested in the conversation and we felt so connected that we hadn't realized that we had stayed up until two in the morning. We talked about our lives and our pasts and I found myself talking about things that I hadn't had the space or the courage to tell anyone before. It was the first time I had truly felt fully seen and safe and valued for the person I am.
What would you do with $20,000?We would put the money towards buying an apartment together and being able to start our journey as a couple living together. Right now we do a bit of long-distance, since we live in different cities, and we would love to put the money towards Damian being able to move up with me and be able to fall asleep next to each other and collapse into each other's arms every night.
