Ten years, two cats, one home, countless laughs and through every chapter, we keep choosing each other.
We would like to thank you for supporting Sarah and Sam 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 first met at a Meetup event, but the timing wasn’t right—I was with someone else. Months later, after my relationship ended, I spotted a familiar face online and thought, ‘I know him.’ We reconnected, started talking, and discovered the connection we’d missed the first time. Ten years later, we’re still choosing each other every day.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?My favorite memory isn’t just one moment—it’s the life we’ve built together over the last 10 years. Buying our home, raising our cats, planning our future, and sharing countless laughs along the way. But if I had to choose one, it would be the moment we realized that chance had given us a second opportunity. We met when the timing wasn’t right, then found each other again months later. Looking back, that simple decision to reach out changed the course of both our lives.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use the $20,000 to help pay for our wedding and create memories that will last a lifetime. After 10 years together, building a home, caring for our cats, and supporting each other through life’s ups and downs, this would help us celebrate the next chapter of our journey surrounded by the people we love most.
