After being briefly introduced in 2011 by their mutual friend Krista, their paths didn't cross again for another year (because Paulo decided to call Houston "home" for some reason).
Then one fateful night as Katie was entertaining herself on the bus ride home from work by perusing Facebook, she saw that Paulo was in San Francisco at a Giants game with Krista. Inquiring minds wanted to know if he was back in town for good this time, and texted Krista to find out. As luck would have it, Paulo was indeed an SF resident again, and as it turns out, living around the corner from Katie.
The next text Katie received from Krista asked her if Paulo could have her number. Two seconds later, Paulo began texting Katie with witty puns, and thus began a friendship mixed with a heavy dose of flirtation and laughter. They ended up going out for drinks that same night and closed the bar down!
From that night on, there wasn't a day that went by where they weren't in touch or seeing each other. Although it took a lot of patience on Katie's part (and about 6 months), Paulo finally wised up and kissed Katie.
After many fun adventures and travels, they knew they were meant to be together and can't wait to continue on their path to happily ever after.
