Us
Kathleen & Matt met at Queen's University, in Kingston, in their 4th year. Matt's 6 other housemates hung out with Kathleen's 3 other housemates, and it just seemed as if they were never out on the same night to run into each other. In January 2006, they finally met at the boy's house to celebrate a friend's birthday. Matt actually invited a girl out with them that night, but luckily for Kathleen, that did not work out for them. Matt asked her housemates who she was...one replied "you don't want to know" (ahem - Holly) and the other kindly let him know who I was (Steph). They didn't actually speak until the next week when they were all out again, and it seemd somehow planned that they would be at the same place at the same time. They hit it off and talked the night away. They went out on a date the following week and continued to spend lots of time together until the end of the year.
They continued dating through the following year, with Kathleen in teacher's college, and Matt completing his economics degree at Queen's - although the long distance relationship was hard, they talked every day and saw each other as often as possible. Matt moved to Toronto the following summer, and Kathleen in the fall. They moved in together in the fall of 2008, and were engaged in April 2009.
