Colin and Virginia met in June 2020, in the midst of the pandemic. Virginia was working at NEMA Chicago, tallest residential building in Chicago, while Colin was just moving in. Virginia will never forget the day she saw Colin for the first time, she knew they would have a special connection.

One day, as they were both "single as Pringles" they were both swiping left & right on Tinder, and of course swiped right on eachother out of pure coincidence and of course attraction.

Colin made the first move by saying " Well this saves me from beating around the bush." Virginia didn't give him much to work with and just replied with a laughing emoji.

Colin was persistent, however, so the next day he came downstairs to Virginia while she was working at the front desk at NEMA. He smoothly slid his phone over to her saying, "I need help with the NEMA app." Only for Virginia to find out that it wasn't the NEMA app, it was Colin asking her for her number.

From that day on, the rest has been history.

This love story is truly a miracle. How two people were able to meet, one coming from all the way from Miami, FL and the other one coming from Oaklawn, IL (Southside Irish part of Chicago). You truly never know when you will meet the love of your life.
