Emily and Charlie matched on Hinge. There’s some back and forth about crossword puzzles and sea turtles... Emily asked Charlie on a date.

January 4, 2023

First date! Emily tried (unsuccessfully) not to talk too much. Charlie tried (successfully) to talk about wine.

January 7, 2023

Second date! It started as lunch, turned into hanging out with Charlies 6th grade girlfriend, and ended with meeting Emilys friends at a dive bar.

January 8-13, 2023

More dates! Charlie revealed that he’s going snowboarding in Colorado for 6 weeks. Emily wondered if he had a job (??). Either way, she assumed he’d become a mountain man and she’d never hear from him again.

January- February, 2023

She heard from him again (a few times!) and even got a couple of flower deliveries! Once Charlie was back, things picked up, and it was like he never left.

Since then...

-Emily fully transformed into a dog mom

-Charlie learned a lot about curly hair

-Emily crashed Charlies car into the house (oops!)

-Charlie killed a lot of bugs

-Georgia has gone 2-1 against Texas

-Emily tried skiing and loved it

-Charlie tried scuba diving and loved it

They decided to make it official when Charlie proposed this December, and can't wait to celebrate with their closest friends and family in October.
