“Sean and I met at the gym where I work. He was training there and I worked at the front desk. Because he was pretty shy, we didn’t really speak much in the beginning. We had some mutual friends and ended up hanging out in big groups together. As we got to know each other, it led to a first date at my favorite taqueria. From that moment on, our lives became entwined and indivisible. Falling in love with Sean is one of the best things I’ve ever …”

One day, Breia posted a picture of Steph and Ayesha Curry, and though she forgets what the caption was, Michael liked it.

After being home for about a month, my good friend Alejandra and I, went downtown for a comedy show and decided to grab a few drinks afterwards. We walked into a taproom, and as we walked to get a drink, a guy called Alejandra's name and they gave each other a big hug. I could tell by their interaction that they were old friends. Arlen and I both stared at each other with a look of “who are you,” since we shared a mutual friend, yet we had never crossed paths. I had known Alejandra since we were teenagers. Our first initial impressions of each other when she introduced us were not the greatest, funny enough. Without even holding a conversation yet, he came across as very confident, but in a cocky way, and he thought I looked a little stuck up. We all decided to sit down together with the rest of our group, and we actually spent most of the night talking to just each other. As it turned out, neither of us were what we thought…ha! He let me know he…”

After searching for the parking lot for an hour, Josh thought she was too mesmerized by their encounter to remember. However, after a couple weeks of dating, he quickly realized she is just forgetful.

David, a second year medical student at the time, caught glimpse of her standing in the lobby. Later that evening, they went for a walk on Bourbon Street, and David showed her around his college town. Being from different states and at different points in their lives, they never anticipated that they would be anything more than pen pals. To the contrary, they quickly found themselves attracted to each other and remained in touch over the ensuing years, making bicoastal trips to meet up…”
Read More“JP and I met about 3 years ago, the day after his birthday. I wasn't sure if I even liked him on our first date …haha. He invited me to this dive bar in Dallas called, Stan's Blue Note, to watch the Ole Miss/Memphis game. Being that I'm a big Ole Miss fan, I thought that was cool he wanted to watch the game together. The entire date was awkward. I think he was really nervous, but he kept telling me how pleasantly surprised he was with me and then almost the entire dinner explained to me how he thought nachos were an underrated meal and not just an…”
