They met on Hinge during the pandemic - as so many couples have. Turns out, when life slows down a bit, it becomes much easier to meet people. So while they matched on Hinge, it didn't take Fernando long to invite Jaimey out on a date. He said that he hated the back and forth of the texting, and would rather just "know".
Read MoreMack and Mayra have a unique story - a rare story. You see, they met in person, yup, I said it, in PERSON. That means they did not meet over a screen, they did not both swipe right, and they did not send text on their first interaction. Pretty weird, huh? Instead, they saw each other in class. Both of them told me the other caught their eye day one, but Mack - who chose to sit in the back - was far from Mayra (who was in the front, naturally), so he couldn't talk to her. The class had no group projects and no discussion, so while both of them saw each other, they didn't talk for the whole semester.
Read MoreTrevor and Whitney met as so many people do these days, online. The first date didn't happen because Trevor decided he needed to go snowboarding in the mountains.

Read MoreAndrew and Madi met at work. Initially, they weren’t interested. One of them was in a relationship, and it was about being friends. This was true for a while, even after they both became single. That said, Madi had a plan, and it all came down to Andrew’s birthday. That is, she thought Andrew was a pretty great guy, so in order to get to know him better, she decided she’d get him a gift card to a coffee place for his birthday - in the hopes he’d invite her to go with him.
Read MoreThey met in college. At the time, Aubrey had a boyfriend, so Jared and her didn't really talk much. Her first thought of Jared was that he was "a little nerdy" to which Jared said was "fair" and that he was the guy that "knew Hebrew" - which Ironically he didn't know much then - although he knows much more now. Jared, for his part, didn't really notice Aubrey much - he said he purposefully kept his distance because he knew she had a boyfriend.
