A Weekend Fling Turned Forever: How a Tinder Match Led to Love Across the Country

I met my gf (future wife) on tinder when I was in town for a music festival. My bio said “just looking to make out with someone” and I had full intentions of having a fun weekend and that was it. We met up, I slept over, I rescheduled my flight back home to have more time with her, then again, and again. I was working remotely so it was feasible. I finally had to go back home because my family had bought tickets to visit from across the country. The metro ride to the airport was EMOTIONAL. We looked like we were parting forever, clinging to each other and crying. Reader, I was only going to be gone for one week. I came back to her one week later and we decided then and there that we would move in together. She packed up her stuff and we drove back to my place. We’ve been together ever since. Two cross country moves and 2.5 years later we still are very madly deeply in love.
