YEAR 1
Waltham, Massachusetts
DW(31): Eveline "Evie" Chantrea Keo-Van Daele - bisexual; straight black hair, brown eyes; half Cambodian - caseworker at a local food bank
DW(36): Alda Margreet Keo-Van Daele - lesbian; wavy blonde hair, blue-green eyes; Dutch - youth pastor
Evie and Alda met when Alda brought one of her youth group kids into the food bank Evie worked at. Evie went out on a limb and asked Alda if she wanted to have dinner with her later. Alda shocked her with an affirmative response. At dinner, they talked about everything: how they ended up working at their current jobs, past relationships, parents and siblings. That one dinner sparked their entire relationship, resulting in marriage almost exactly two years later.
To celebrate their honeymoon, they took off on a month long trip, hitting all the fun spots along the Mediterranean coast. When they came back, they had an album full of pictures of them in half a dozen different swimsuits doing all the fun things the Mediterranean had to offer.
