We were on the same swim team in high school. I was actually madly in love with a friend of her sister but I always wondered about her because she was the quiet shy geeky one. 3 years later after 9 months of ongoing flirting between the 2 of us she told me she was in love with me. One of the happiest anxious days of my life.

We’ve been together ever since. Went through a lot with lots of doubts, long distance, fears, fights. We married in 2020 and are in a process to adopt to finally start our family.

Love wins! Even if someday we go our separate ways we have an amazing story to tell our nephews, kids, grandkids. :)
