HOW WE STARTED

We technically met through Youth for Christ, although for a while we were really just two people who happened to be in the same community. We had crossed paths at events, and our first actual messages were purely practical: Nadine was helping organize a campus event and reached out to Miguel because she needed a band. Very functional.Then came September 2017.A random Facebook quiz matched Miguel as Nadine’s “Plan B.” Nadine was too shy to actually post the result, so instead, she sent it to Miguel privately as a joke.Somehow, that one silly message turned into a conversation that just… never really ended.Within days, chatting turned into dinners after school and internship, spontaneous trips across Manila, and a quick café visit turned into walking around Luneta and Manila Bay until it was early enough for McDonald’s breakfast.There was no best foot forward and no expectation that any of it would become something more. We were just two new friends having fun, talking about everything, and discovering how easy it was to be ourselves around each other.Then, on Nadine’s birthday, Miguel admitted that he wanted to get to know her as more than a friend.Nadine, naturally, responded with approximately one million questions. As expected.What started as a random YFC connection and one silly Facebook quiz slowly became something neither of us expected. And somehow, that conversation we started in September 2017 is one we’ve never really stopped having.
