How the distance closed

Scroll along — the distance meter above counts down as our story does. Every milestone here is a placeholder; swap in your own dates, photos, and words.

The Beginning

[How you two first “met”]

Placeholder — the app, the setup, the mutual friend, the chance encounter. However it started, this is where chapter one begins.

How you two first met
Long Distance, Round One

[The 10.5-hour time-zone gap begins]

Placeholder — early calls at odd hours, the first “good morning” that was actually goodnight, learning each other from two continents away.

Vadodara

[The first trip to meet in person]

Placeholder — who flew where, how long the flight felt, and the moment it became real.

The first trip to meet in person
Back & Forth

[The visits that followed]

Placeholder — the trips, the airport goodbyes, the growing certainty that the distance was temporary.

The visits that followed
The Decision

[Choosing to close the gap for good]

Placeholder — the conversation about a future in the same city, the same time zone, the same home.

The Proposal

[Where and how it happened]

Placeholder — the setting, the surprise (or lack thereof), and the moment “long distance” became “engaged.”

The two of us just after the proposal, the ring on her hand.
