Greetings from Dulcedo this Valentine's Day! We had the privilege of chatting with two of our beloved couples,
Sarah and Mikey, and
Eden and Jay, about all things, love. And it appears to us that
Hinge is the place to find your soulmate!
If you're looking to get in Valentine's spirit, continue reading!
Sarah and Mikey
How did you meet?
Believe it or not, we met on Hinge! And our first date was a memorable one on New Year's Eve.
What part do you find hardest about being a couple in the public eye?
Absolutely none! We feel that this journey as content creators has only brought us closer! Being in the "public eye" has given us the most amazing community of supporters along the way. We are so grateful!
What are the positive aspects of being a couple in the public eye?
Creating videos on social media has allowed us to become very creative with the ways we can show our love for each other!
How are you planning to spend this Valentine's Day together?
This Valentine’s Day, we have reservations at the restaurant we shared our first meal together! Sentimental, romantic, and nostalgic!
What is your favorite thing about each other?
My favorite thing about Sarah is her energy! I love Sarah's energy! She can make the darkest room feel bright!
My favorite thing about Mikey is how encouraging and supportive he is! He is my biggest cheerleader!
Eden and Jay
How did you meet?
We met on a dating app called Hinge, and Eden was 45 mins late to our date. Thankfully she made up for it during the date and we are now happily married. A true millennial love story!
What part do you find hardest about being a couple in the public eye?
The most challenging part about being a couple in the public eye is that we know we are a same-sex couple and unfortunately, not everyone agrees or supports our lifestyle so it can be a bit heavy sometimes with the anti-gay comments. However, that makes us want to keep pushing forward and show the world that a love like ours deserves to be here just as much as anyone else.
What are the positive aspects of being a couple in the public eye?
We get to help make people all over the world feel less alone and be seen. We've built a community online and in real life that we wouldn't have had if we didn't have a platform of supporters. We also realize that we have the opportunity to work with brands that support the LGBTQ+ community and are inclusive to POC.
How are you planning to spend this Valentine's Day?
That's a great question! Jay broke her foot so our original plan has been put on pause! So it might just be a romantic date night at home! However, we have both been secretly working on Valentine's gifts for each other, so the day will still be full of surprises.
What is your favorite thing about each other?
My favorite thing about Eden is how determined she is in life, and how inspiring she is to me. I love that she motivates me every day to be a better partner and to reach for the stars while achieving any crazy and wild ideas I may have. She's my best friend and the love of my life.
My favorite thing about Jay is that she showed me what true and healthy love can actually feel like. I've never met someone as kind and gentle with so many tattoos. But that's why I love her, she's strong and sensitive, and she brings so much balance to my life.
