We cross paths with so many people in our walk of life and connect with a few along the way, but it takes a special person to change your life forever. And when the stars align, there’s no denying what’s destined to be. In 2022, Nate & Justine were both on travel nursing assignments in Oregon. Justine was ready to settle down and felt right at home in Portland. On the other hand, Nate had intentions to visit as many states as he could as a travel nurse and only planned to stay in Oregon for a couple months. But as we know it, life always has a way of throwing in little surprises here and there. As many single people do these days, the two connected through the dating app, Hinge & one day, they spark a conversation and start messaging each other. The very next day, Nate was invited by his friend, for a night out to an EDM concert while Justine had plans to meet up with friends to the same show. Little did they know, they were both in the same building that night. At one point during the show, Justine’s friend notice a couple of guys dancing nearby, one of them being “tall with a nice jaw line and a white shirt”. Nate & Justine notice each other and briefly shared a gaze. Funny thing is, neither of them realized they were looking at the person they’ve been messaging on Hinge! Justine had just changed her hair so Nate hadn’t recognized her at that moment and they had just started messaging each other the day before so it didn’t even cross their mind. As the night progresses, Nate couldn’t stop thinking about the beautiful girl he saw & hoped to see her again but what were the odds amongst a crowd at a concert in a big city? The day after the show, their messaging continued & their conversation eventually revealed that the “tall guy with the white shirt & a nice jaw line” was Nate and the “beautiful girl I couldn’t stop thinking about” was Justine. They spent just about 10 hours together on their first date connecting on their love for music and adventure. Finding the love of your life just by simply being at the right place at the right time is a one-of-a-kind experience we could have as human beings and truth be told, Nate & Justine’s greatest adventure started the moment they shared that single gaze.
