It's a love story
Martin & My's love story started like many of my other relationships thanks to clothes, a red vintage cardigan to be exact. It was one of those rare cold days in Florida and I wasn't prepared because it didn't usually last. Our mutual friend Victor saw me shivering in the hallway at lunch and lent me his red cardigan. It was love at first sight and I promptly told him, that this cardigan and I belonged together. He wasn't very keen on that idea, so he decided to introduce me to the person he got it from in the hopes that he'd get his cardigan back. With the promise of cute clothes on the horizon I followed him and met Martin. For those of you wondering I kept the cardigan, it brought me Martin after all and if that's not fate I don't know what is.
Like many other millennial couples Ricardo and I officially met online, via tumblr. We were acquaintances because I knew Martin (Ricardo's twin), but Ricardo and I had only met in person a handful of times. A couple years later I needed someone to go swing dancing with me because my typical partner couldn't go so I messaged Ricardo on tumblr and said "you look like someone who would like swing dancing, would you want to go with me?" We ended up going to a carnival instead and I taught him to swing dance in the parking lot. The rest is history.
Now whats the best part of these love stories you ask? Well its what brought us together and essentially what started the thehepburnmovement, that's right its thanks to these handsome fellas that we became friends. We met one day while hanging out at our fella's parents homes and decided to follow eachother on tumblr. It was all the rage back then, and thats how we started talking. We would send eachother messages everyday and quickly discovered that we were basically soul mates. We have been best friends ever since!
