We met on OKCupid in October 2018. Our first date was at a coffee shop in Center City, Philadelphia, followed by a walk along the Schuylkill River, and our first kiss was on our second date at an Afro-futurist party at the Tiberino Museum in West Philadelphia. Over the next few months, we bonded over our shared love of books, spirituality, art, and travel.
