Eric and Kalli met over Fall break of 2016. They unknowingly had quite a few mutual friends, so all of them got together one evening. Eric had seen Kalli on snapchat before and thought she was cute... but Kalli had never heard of or seen him before. The moment they met there was an instant connection, mainly because they understood each other's humor (what can we say... we're funny people). A couple days passed and they hung out every night with their group of friends, including the last night that Eric was in town before heading back to Florida. It was getting really late that particular evening, so Kalli decided it was time to go home, which Eric insisted on walking her to her car. They quickly said their goodbyes and went their separate ways. As Kalli was driving down the road, she looked in her rear view mirror and saw Eric running after her car. She slammed on her brakes and Eric came up to her window asking her to have lunch with him the next day before he left. She agreed... but then later cancelled on the poor guy. They ended up keeping in contact until winter break, which is when Eric began to pursue her. He asked Kalli to be his girlfriend the day after Christmas to begin that whole long distance thing. A little over a year later, on February 9, 2018, Eric asked Kalli to spend forever with him.
