Our Love Story

They first crossed paths in 2010 as schoolmates, unaware that their story had already begun. By 2012, they became classmates—close enough to see each other every day, yet too shy to truly speak. In person, they were awkward classmates but through text messages and social media, they were quietly becoming something more. Even without words, their hearts found a way to meet.

 

On January 12, 2013, courage changed everything. Aj finally expressed his true feelings, trusting in faith and believing that Kristine felt the same. She did. From that moment on March 14, 2013, their journey officially began. Together, they shared countless memories filled with laughter, growth, and lessons learned through both joy and challenges.

 

Their love was tested many times, but with faith at the center and God guiding their relationship, love always prevailed. In 2019, distance became their greatest challenge when Aj worked abroad for a year. It was a season of waiting, longing, and uncertainty but also one that strengthened their bond. Through patience, trust, and unwavering faith, Kristine waited, and Aj held on. When he finally returned to the Philippines, he chose to stay for good, especially as the pandemic changed the world and their priorities.

 

Then, on March 14, 2024—exactly eleven years after they became official, Aj made a life-changing decision. He chose forever. He asked to live his life with Kristine, and with love in her heart and certainty in her soul, she answered with a sweet and joyful **yes**.


A story written by time, tested by distance, and guided by faith—proof that true love always finds its way home. 💍✨
