We worked together at Sendik's in the deli in 2011, when Jen was 19, Corey was 22. We flirted, probably, but didn't hang out much due to the age difference at the time. A day or two after Jen transferred to a different Sendik's, Corey had texted her to go on a date. We did go on a date and ended up dating for a little less than a year. We were at a different point in life and ended up amicably breaking up. Years later, we ran into each other at RC's (rip). We chatted and were polite and had a nice conversation but at the time Jen was with someone else. At some point, after we were both single, we started going to shows together, pretty sure Madeon was one of the first ones we had gone to together after starting to hang out again. Jen had an extra ticket for Bonnaroo, so we ended up going to Bonnaroo 2015 together. It was so much fun and we've gone 4 times together since as well as to many many other shows and festivals. We love hiking and traveling together and apparently now are getting married!
We both had COVID and were stuck at home for Christmas in 2021. It was a bummer because Corey was sick for his birthday and Christmas is one of Jen's favorite holidays. Jen wanted to celebrate so we got dressed up and she made us dinner and we played some games and hung out as best we could when you're feeling under the weather. Corey had created a scavenger hunt for Jen after opening presents, and that led her to a box in the tree, which obviously held the ring in it. The usual, Jen grabbed the box, panicked, turned around, Corey asked Jen to marry him, and obviously Jen said yes.
