YOU ARE THE ONE

"I matched with Raamish [Abbasi] on a dating app. Back then, I didn't believe in the concept of finding The One, but when I met him, my perspective changed for the better. I cannot put into words the emotions I felt on our first meeting conversations were effortless and flowed easily. We just clicked. I believe Raamish finally found someone who would crack up at his lame jokes [laughs], but, more than that, our principles matched. Raamish is so humorous and he is as ambitious and independent as I am.

For me, love means friendship...a friendship is everlasting and you always stick by each other through thick and thin. Over the course of five years, we have stood by one another even when things were tough. And with Raamish, I found friendship and more-there was peace, trust, and commitment. After being with each other for half a decade, we took the plunge and decided to get married. It made us a big family. We now have an extra set of loving parents and an older sibling. Our love just quadrupled and there is nothing better than that."
