After chatting on OkCupid, I first met @jstamper_halpin outside this cute apartment he was viewing, hoping to grab coffee after. We got distracted—measured the space, drew up a floor plan—so we never got that coffee.

Eight months later, I moved into that apartment with him. ???? https://t.co/AiURDM4Wvi pic.twitter.com/9MmtEN9pIe

My dad died when I was 9. I was always sad he'd never meet my husband. Years into marriage, I learned about the time my mom & dad visited my grandparents and met the neighbors' new baby. Turns out my dad DID meet my husband… 4 years before his own future daughter was even born. https://t.co/M8NAiu3zFG

Minutes later, crush calls to tell me this isn't a one time thing; he wants to see me next weekend. I choose him…and marry him 2 years later.

The masquerade ball. I in a borrowed elven gown, white organza sparkling w/ silver & crystal stars. She in her crimson & gold knight’s uniform & tall leather boots. On bent knee, she presented a red rose. At midnight she bowed & swept me into a waltz: “As the World Falls Down.” https://t.co/4ePAJqHGmM

I went on a blind date w this cute guy. Had 2 ok dates, then I was dx with breast cancer at 25. Tried to break up with him b/c I thought it wasn't fair to put him through that…he disagreed. He met my entire family while I was in surgery and he took care of me while I recovered. https://t.co/2Mhzc4mdtj

After date one, I texted my BFF to tell her there was NO WAY there would be date two b/c even though he was SUPER nice we had nothing in common. Reader, there was a date two, and a date two thousand. We own a home together now and still have nothing in common.

On a third date I got hit by a car on my way home. I forgot most of the date (incl. first kiss) but she visited me in the hospital and while I recovered and when I came out of the haze I was in a relationship. We're married now.

I went to a masquerade ball on New Year’s Eve and met a guy I had instant chemistry with. I had to leave before midnight, and we didn’t exchange contact info or even last names. 5 days later, we both showed up at another dance looking for each other. Married nearly 6 years now.

Met my husband on a hotel porch after I spent a day photographing a car race. I was dirty, sunburnt, and my eyes were red. He offered me a beer and his number (I took both). Six months of emails & a handful of long-distance dates later, he offered me a ring on that same porch.
