What is the most interesting thing you've learned about each other?

Her: The respect that he has for older people, and that he eats his white rice plain. No gravy, just plain rice.

When did you know he/she was the one?

Her: Miami for our birthdays.

Her: When I saw how he was with his grandma Pearl.

Him: The funniest and the weirdest thing is one night as I’m taking out ice cream for me and her, I turned around and she’s putting it in the microwave.

Him: I knew when I started saying no to overtime on my job because I wanted to come home more often to spend time with her.

What do you love most about each other?

what's next for you two?
