Our Story
Q: When did you meet?
A: 2014
Q: How did you meet?
AB: Do you want her version or the truth?
TJM: My version is the truth
AB: Our story began with her coming late to class
TJM: That’s definitely not true. I was in class minding my business and he was staring at me
AB: I was staring because you were late
TJM: Ok let’s just agree to disagree
Q: So how did we go from 2014’s staring contest to love birds?
TJM: We stayed friends throughout College and then after graduation in 2016 we were both focused on getting our careers started.
AB: Yes she didn’t take me seriously
TJM: I started taking him seriously in 2017, we never stopped talking but for some reason, that year he started applying pressure
AB: All gas no brakes TJM rolls eyes
TJM: I guess he realized that he couldn’t live without me and in 2018 he asked me to be his girlfriend
Q: When did you know you were going to propose?
AB: I knew I wanted to marry her in September 2017, she did something really special for my birthday and we weren’t even in a relationship yet
TJM: Ohhh that’s why you started applying pressure
Q: Did you know he was going to propose?
TJM: I had an idea it was coming but I just didn’t know when. He had asked for my ring size lol, dead giveaway
AB: No it was part of the strategy
TJM: Yeah ok
Q: How did he propose?
TJM: We were in Mexico for my birthday in March 2022, he planned dinner on the beach and when we were walking to our table, I saw rose petals on the ground and just started gasping like NO WAY. As we got closer I saw the lights…the sign…and then I started screaming!! I don’t even remember his speech I was just screaming and crying
Q: How did you know she was the one?
AB: I knew she was the one when I couldn’t be without her. She’s my best friend and the best person I know
TJM: I knew he was the one because his love is so pure. He’s my best friend, my protector and we are the best version of ourselves with each other
