On a cold January night I was with two of my best friends, Sarah and Kristine, for a fun girls weekend in Philly. We started at our favorite bar Dirty Franks where we got to meet several of Sarah’s friends from college. As the night progressed, our large group ended up at another bar called Prohibition Tap Room. While enjoying some more drinks another friend of Sarah’s arrived in a suit from another event (a casino night). We were introduced and I learned his name was Matt, older brother of Sarah’s college friend Tim. We continued to talk for hours that night and was lucky enough to see him again the next night. As we talked throughout the week, he surprised me by coming to see me in New York City the next weekend. We walked on the High Line, visited galleries, and grabbed drinks before sealing the night with our first kiss. The rest they say is history. We are almost nine years later and still finding more reasons to love each other.
