Love, memories, first kisses and everything sweet! Here's a must-read true-love story of John and Bimbo.

 

How Did You Meet?

We met at a hangout. (laughs) Thinking about it now, I remember how my friend forced me to attend this hangout. It just makes me laugh that I wouldn't have met this sweet person - Bimbo. 
 
I think for me, she was the highlight of that hangout. Her laughter was so contagious and even though I was forming hard guy at some point, I didn't even know when I lost guard too - John. 
 

Was It Love At First Sight?

For me, it wasn't. I was just really attracted to him. I don't know if it was my eyes or the drink, but he was glowing, a lot more than everyone else at the hangout. So I just went to say hello - Bimbo.
 
Nah. Although to be honest, I was surprised by the fact that she introduced herself first. I don't recall a time any lady has done that. - John. 
 

How was Your First Date Like? Who Kissed Who First?

(Laughs) I did. I mean I knew it would be somehow especially because it was the first date. I wasn't even thinking. I just planted the kiss in public. Ha! It was crazy and I was so amused by the surprise in his eyes - Bimbo
 
(Laughs) I honestly stopped breathing for a second because I thought it was so bold. I mean deep down, I think us guys love when our women make the first move. Maybe I'm just talking for myself though, but it's one of my best memories - John
 

Would You Consider Yourselves To Be In Love?

Yes definitely, Yes - Bimbo and John
 

Anything else you'd like to add?

Well... I know true love exists and it doesn't divide gender. We literally do everything together without even thinking that oh! it's his job to do that. We've become so much like family and more, that let's even assume if something happened, we would always be cool. I think that's really what true love is; to be cool with each other even when everything else drives us apart - Bimbo
 
Always be yourself, be natural, and be willing to work things out. Identify your toxic traits and be willing to be better and let your partner help you too. These are some core things I've learned while with her. She's just so perfect, I call her my oasis - John.
