We met at the ages of 15 & 16 years old at UNT in Denton, Texas. We were friends but from a distance because we were not very close. After UNT we remained in contact for a few months but fell off then years later in fall of 2020 Alex reached out and we reconnected. We met up at Pluckers for our first “date” (I thought we were just reconnecting) then about 2 months later we thought it was time to take it to the next level. With us being in a long-distance relationship for the first time, we didn’t have any idea of how we would see each other, however we made it work. We slowly reached 6 months, then 1 year, then 2 years, and now 3 1/2 years later we are finally engaged!
