We met on Bumble, the second time around, per Ryan! After a few days of talking, he asked me out. After our first date, I was admitted to the hospital, where he sent me the prettiest "get well soon" flowers and came to visit me. He met my mom at the hospital only five days in. We went on our second date to Babalu for tacos and margaritas (my favorite!) after I was discharged.
Two days later (only nine days into knowing each other!) before his first shift as a real doctor he said, "I don't see why we need to see other people, l think we should do this." The rest is history!
After making the drive to Memphis and back on March 10 to meet with my dad, the pandemic of COVID hitting only a few days later, and our many spring trips being cancelled, Ryan proposed in my living room on the sofa, asking if Louie and I both would marry him. The tears were rolling, I was in shock, and eventually got out the word, YES!!
