We met on the dating app Bumble, where the girl has to make the first move. Sam, the American, won over Kyle, the Canadian, with her vast travel experience in the Great White North. Kyle, a man of few words (joking…) wasted no time and asked Sam out for dinner. Date #1, June 8, 2016 at the Cask Room, followed by Bud Light’s and basketball at a VERY nice rooftop bar, Tonic. Those from NYC are familiar with that fine establishment… After a few weeks of dating, Sam was apprehensive of the wholesome sweethearted Canadian. She was not used to a nice guy who knew how to communicate. Luckily, Sam’s friends convinced her to give him a chance and two and half years later they were engaged. What a journey it has been: a year and a half living long distance, new jobs, new friendships, new home… all together, as Skyle. Life before we met is what Kyle describes as B.S…. Before Sam.
