It all started in 2016 when we both joined the same co-ed soccer league while living back in our hometowns as post grads. Having grown up in neighboring towns, we were no strangers and had some run ins with each other throughout the years. Colin always thought Jess was cute and took his chance when Jess reached out to the team group chat asking if shin guards were required for the game. Colin texted Jess on the side that he had an extra pair he could bring her, and the conversation hasn't stopped since! We don't actually know when our anniversary is because we were both so into each other we never even questioned if we were dating or not. We moved in together in Hoboken in October 2019, got engaged March 2022, and cannot wait to get married in June 2023! ....Colin eventually admitted he never had an extra pair of shin guards.
