Our Love Story
It all started with a simple chat—just two people who shared common friends on Facebook. At first, our conversations were casual and light, nothing more. But as days turned into weeks, we found ourselves talking more and more, and a gentle connection began to grow between us.
Both of us had come from painful, difficult past relationships—we knew what it was like to be hurt, and we were both careful with our hearts. Yet, the more we spoke, the deeper our bond became. We shared our fears, our hopes, and the lessons we’d learned, and slowly, we found comfort and safety in each other.
In the year 2020, while he was out at sea on board his ship, I made the decision to come home to Calauag and stay. When he finally returned, we made a promise to each other: once we met and confirmed that everything felt right and perfect between us, we would make it official.
Years later, here we are—about to get married and become one. What began as a simple chat had turned into a lifetime of love, and now, we get to spend forever together.
