We met at Thomas Aquinas College, when Dillon approached me early in freshman year asking if I would be his swing dance partner in some dance lessons he was getting from an upperclassman. I reluctantly agreed, did just one swing lesson, and then forgot about him for the most part. …Until the swing competition at the end of freshman year when he reached out again asking me to be his partner. I agreed, and we got 4th place! Our little friendship grew when I learned that he had a big crush on my best friend and roommate, and I spent the next year trying to convince her to fall in love with him. Evidently, the only person I convinced was myself, and we started dating the summer before Junior year and he proposed in December of 2020 :) P.S. We competed in the swing competition our senior year just for kicks, and got 2nd place!
