It was a Saturday night in city and all the freshman at Boston University were ready to go to their first real college party. Brianna was no exception. She was accompanied by a few of her newest and oldest buddies as she entered the fine establishment of the Pike house. The walls were red, the energy was high, and the music was loud. It wasn't long until she found herself introduced to guy named Christian. He was a year older, played guitar in a band, and was in a fraternity. This night marked the very slow start of a friendship that grew over the course of greek life social events, occasional run-ins in the dining hall, and basement concerts. But it wasn't until six years later, in December 2015, that Brianna and Christian truly got to know one another. Years after graduation, they unknowingly both ended up living 1/2 mile from one another. Serendipitously, Bumble brought them together again, and Brianna had to send the first message... "Hey, remember me?" Christian immediately invited her out to sushi and the rest is history.
