I like to refer to Richard & I’d love story as “hiding in plain sight” as we lived down the road from each other in the same area, went to the exact same high school yet only noticed and grew interest in each other once we started teaching at the same school. We are polar opposites with me being the shy, introverted girl and him being the talkative, extroverted, sunshine boy. We’ve been together for 8 years, through many ups and downs, long distances, lockdowns, we’ve lived in 3 different countries and are now living out our dream life.
