Our willingness to learn everyday. To learn how we hurt each other, want to be seen and heard, and how to love each other.
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 were friends that were actually in love with other people. We both faced different ends of heart break and spent days picking each other up and supporting each other to heal and grow. We had no idea we were laying the foundation for the most honest, vulnerable, and trusting relationship we have ever had. Without rush or judgement, we organically fell in love in a world that would rather us not.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We were in the beginning of our relationship, figuring out where we were headed & what timeline we were on. It had been long enough to ask the “what are we” question, but new enough to be terrified to commit & hurt each other. We looked at each other & agreed, we will never be in this moment of our relationship again. We will never be in this moment in time again. Let’s intentionally enjoy exactly where we are. We have so much time. No rush. We have led with that mindset everyday since.
What would you do with $20,000?We want to have children. We want to create love in a world where people are endlessly searching for something everyone should feel freely. We would use the money to help us start our family, to share joy and love to the community, and ultimately to give back to those feeling lost and alone.
