So how do you know you've met the one, well only time will tell but from our very first dates, we knew that what we had was special. Here is a glimpse of our first impressions of each other and what we could be...

Jackie, email excerpt from April 30th, 2016:

          I know I should go to sleep. Just doing some late nite FB before going to nap. Have you noticed the amount of sad and lonely post that spring up towards the wee hours? When people are by themselves, filled with self doubts, anxiety, and despair?

          I just commented on a gal having the same issues of seeing if dating someone that she isn't attracted to was a good or bad idea. Of course it's a bad idea... in my hind sight. But seeing how some other people are also very encouraging about trying to make it work is quite inspiring for the romantics.

          The harsh truth of people willing to settle to not be alone are on the single's group all day, granted that a lot of these people don't have their lives together and think being in love will fix all of their problems. In our case, we kind of have a grasp of our individual future and are in the process of seeing how being together will make the combined journey even better.

          You are the one unicorn I have been waiting for, Verenisse, perfect for me. Seeing all of the random post on the singles group make me realize that how lucky I am to had the chance to meet you from one Charger's message. There were pretty much no chance in hell I would of ever met you in person and had the chance to even chat about football and Disney, the group connected us together and that is some fairy god mother magic right there.

Verenisse, email excerpt from May 6th, 2016:

          I'm was just driving back to Reyna's house from meeting up with you for lunch and I had so much on my mind that I needed to go to my happy place. I drove down to La Jolla, parked my car, went down to the sand and just let my mind wander. Mainly about us, but mostly about you...

          Jackie you scare me. I'm scared of how much I enjoy seeing you and how when I'm with you everything is bright and I'm happy. I'm scared of how you are exactly what my heart wants even when I didn't even know for myself that I was looking for you. Mostly I'm scared that I'm falling for you and you keep pulling on my heart strings in the most beautiful of ways and it's becoming more and more difficult to not fall head over heels in love with you. 

          I think to myself, I must be dreaming, how is it that I am allowed to find love not just once in my lifetime but now twice. This time with eyes wide open, wiser to what I want and able to know what is good for me. You, Jackie, are all the things I think a man should be; loving, kind, generous, funny, smart, strong, handsome....I could go on and on. You are what I thought was unattainable and I had convinced myself that a guy like that didn't exist, that he was just a fairy tale. And here we are.

          You said today that I wasn't sure yet about you, but I am. I'm sure that I love spending time with you. That my smiles when I'm deep in thought are of you. Even on my drive here I had Christina Aguilera's "loving me for me" on repeat just thinking about you. I'm ready to let my guard down and allow myself to love again, I just worry that you have the ability to break my heart more than anyone else has, I just got finished putting the pieces of my heart back together....so when I give it to you, please be gentle.

Five years later, while on vacation at Walt Disney World's Epcot, we found ourselves engaged and 6 years to the day of our meeting we will be married. So we hope you join us as we begin our greatest adventure as Mr and Mrs. Fu.
