As many of you know, Richard and Claire met many times prior to what would be considered worthy of chronicling in a story. Let's just say it all started at Clemson University when Richard was the social chair of his fraternity and Claire was a freshman. Richard was busy scheduling parties and tailgates for his brothers...priorities, right? Meanwhile, Claire was trying to find the perfect balance between studying and social time with friends. Somewhere in the mix of things, Richard convinced Claire to go on a date—which Claire twisted into a STUDY date. On a cold day in January 2016, Claire went over to Richard's apartment fully expecting to hit the books. Naturally, Richard attempted no studying but could have won the Olympics for running his mouth. Fast forward a couple of months and Richard had a new girlfriend (and better grades). The rest is history.
