They met online - they both swiped right. The biggest problem with the whole thing though wasn't that they matched, but that Skyler was in Pakistan when it happened - yeah. So what that meant is they had to talk, and talk they did! First it was over the app, but then quickly moved to Snapchat and then to WhatsApp. They would start doing video calls "every once in a while" and would generally get to know each other.
Read MoreWill and Jordan met online - as almost everyone does these days. The weird thing about it was that Will lived in Washington, while Jordan lived in Nashville. Yeah, if you're trying to think "how did they match?!" That's exactly what Jordan was thinking too. So she messaged him "You're not from here, are you?" - There must have been something that tipped her off. Either way, the reason is simple, Will said the people in our area "just weren't working out" and so he changed his matchable area to be very, very large.
Read MoreThey 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. Makes sense, the snow was good that day, and Whitney wasn't someone he had met yet, so because it was so unknown, he went snowboarding.
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.
