The short version is that we met through a mutual friend.

The long version is that a mutual friend got bored one day and made a big conference call with a bunch of her friends. We both ended up being on that call and decided to become friends on Facebook afterward.

After about a year of talking on Facebook, we decided to meet in person. We continued to be good friends for a number of years until we ended up falling out of contact at some point.

About 4 or 5 years passed and we got back in touch through Facebook. After the initial catching up, it felt like no time had passed at all. Feelings developed and we started dating. We dated for 2 years before getting engaged.

We both believe that our relationship was meant to be. There were so many little things that led us to where we are now. If one thing had gone differently, we might not be together or have even met at all. Missing that conference call, not becoming Facebook friends, or not reconnecting after years of silence - it all feels like God played a role in bringing us together.
