“Charles and I met at our church’s college/20s ministry, ‘The Well.’ We had several mutual friends, and for a long time, would always just say, ‘hi.’ Eventually, we both ended up being greeters, welcoming people in as they came to The Well, and we quickly became friends. After several months of growing our friendship, countless conversations about life, faith, and our future, multiple game nights (and by game night, I mean playing Rock Band), he asked my dad to date me…”
Read More”Reggie and I met at Presbyterian College in 2012 at the start of our freshman year. We were coincidentally taking Biology 105 together, and were assigned to the same study/class group. It was just me and three random guys. Reggie was different from the other two; he was a freshman just like me, and he was similarly taking the course to fulfill a prerequisite to attend pharmacy school. We quickly learned our schedules were almost identical- we had every class together, with the exception of freshman seminar. After the struggles of college set in…”
Read More“Wes & I met in study hall of our freshman year of high school. Because we were the only two freshmen in the class, we instantly became friends. We went on our first date during junior year of high school (to a BBQ restaurant, and Wes was distracted watching sports most of the time because he was so nervous), and dated off and on a bit until…”
Read More“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 …”
Read More“Breia & Michael met on Instagram, where they were friends for a while, always liking one another’s pictures. One day, Breia posted a picture of Steph and Ayesha Curry, and though she forgets what the caption was, Michael liked it. She then came up with enough courage to DM him saying, “you would be BAE, if you didn’t live so far away.” From that moment on, they began exchanging messages, then phone calls, then dating…”
Read More“I had just moved back home to Greenville, having left a job in Miami, Florida. 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…”
