Ryan and I crossed paths in one of the most romantic ways imaginable - on a fancy little dating website called OKCupid. He messaged me first, and for some reason I decided to respond to him. Lots of chatting and a few hangouts later, Ryan and I officially started dating on May 3rd, 2013. It was in the evening after we had went out to dinner. We were outside his apartment in the yard because we had heard fireworks going off from the end of an Isotopes game. As we were watching all the pretty lights explode in the sky, Ryan decided to ask me to be his girlfriend and I accepted. It was our very own cute little mushy romcom moment. We've been together ever since and plan to make it even more official on our 10-year anniversary.
