Our Love Story
We connected on Coffee Meets Bagel, and finally met in person after about a month of back and forth texting. God's Grace works in miraculous ways, because we ended up getting married!
Sharon's Perspective:
When I saw that Jonathan liked my profile for the 5th time after being rejected, I thought I should give him a shot, so I connected with him.
During this time, I was so busy with work, I honestly didn't have much time to respond to Jonathan's texts. Because of my lack of responsiveness, I was surprised when he asked for my phone number, and we continued chatting. Eventually, we finally met for the first time on a 10 minute date. He definitely left an impression!
From there, he continually showed me his gentle nature and loving side with spontaneous picnics and study dates. As cheesy as it sounds, I felt safe being myself and exposing my weakest (and stinkiest) side, with confidence that he would be by my side and walk with me despite my flaws and imperfections.
Jonathan's Perspective:
Coffee Meets Bagel is a number's game for guys, so I liked all of the profiles that came my way.
I didn't think Sharon was interested, because she would be very sparse with her answers, and I was trying my best to keep the conversation alive. To my surprise, she gave me her number as our chat was closing, and she seemed like a completely different person when we talked over the phone.
We met up almost every single day as she transitioned out of her job and into business ownership, so we got to know each other very well. Somehow along the way, we started talking about marriage, and we ended up here, planning for a wedding 3 years after we've already signed all the papers.
