Thank you for sharing this, Emily. I'm collecting little plot points of data that it's still possible for me, despite being single all years of my life except two in my twenties. I love this story.

Aw Katherine, thank you! That means so much coming from you. I completely understand, that is totally how I felt, and part of why I wanted to share this. Sometimes it's so weird and random and wrapped up in a situation that looks very different than what we expect lol. <3 <3
