Kimberly and David
June 17, 2025
We have a different perspective as to how and when our relationship began. We decided to tell our side of the story from our perspective, you can be the judge ❤
Dave's Perspective:
Kim and I matched on Hinge on Valentine’s Day (so she told me) in 2021. For the next couple weeks, we texted and got to know each other. At the time neither of us were looking for a relationship but we wanted to meet up. The day before my birthday, we finally met up. I drove to her house, and she was outside waiting for me. Once she saw my sexy self and already knew I hit the long ball, it was love at first site for her. For the next month we hung out a couple of times and became good friends. Finally, she couldn’t handle just being friends and wanted more. While she was at the Steelers game (10 beers deep), she texted me and said “what’s going on with us. Shit or get off the pot but you’re holding up the line.” I read that as “you are amazing, will you be my boyfriend.” I decided to go all in and deleted my dating apps and stopped talking to the other 20 girls. Don’t hate the playa, hate the game. Well, look at us now. I certainly made the right decision.
We had our first date at a Mexican restaurant on November 5th, 2021, and it went well. After a couple more dates we made it official. We became boyfriend/girlfriend and I wanted to use November 5th as our official date. What I didn’t know at the time was that she had another date with another guy the night after our first date. That bitc……Anyway, I recall Kimberly telling me how she had a conversation with her mother about both the dates and how she really liked me. Her mother said then go for him, but don’t call him Davey. He seems like a great guy.
If she never asked me to be her boyfriend at the Steelers game who knows where we would be but I’m glad she did! In the end we changed our official relationship date to December 4th, 2021, and got engaged on February 24, 2023.
Kim's Perspective:
Dave and I matched on a dating app on Valentines Day 2021. We chatted and facetimed a few times the week after, just getting to know one another. Dave invited me over to his house for pizza and wine a few weeks later, I accepted but canceled on him the day of…how rude of me! We finally met the day before his 41st birthday. He came over to watch a movie and let our puppies play. I remember thinking, he’s cute but not the one for me. We remained friends and would talk often, mostly about our failed and horrible dates we have been going on with others. In early November of the same year, Dave asked if I was free for dinner because he was craving Mexican. I scrambled to get a babysitter; I was nervous for some reason. We had a great night. A few weeks later while I was at a Steelers game with some friends, I had a few cans of liquid courage and sent Dave a text message: ‘what is going on with us because you are holding up the line’. His reply was ‘we can keep hanging out and see where things go’. On December 3rd I attended Dave’s work Holiday party where he introduced me as his girlfriend to everyone. I let it slide for the night, but boy oh boy the next morning I told him how dare he proclaim and assign that title to me without having a conversation! We laughed and decided to make December 4, 2021, our official date. Two short months later in February, Dave told me he loved me for the first time, my reply was ‘I know’.
Dave asked me to marry him in a very sweet and thoughtful way. Saying Yes to Dave was the easiest Yes ever. There is no person on this earth that knows how to make me laugh and feel loved more than Dave does. He loves my kids a great deal and helps Weston with the math homework that I cannot figure out. He gossips about life with McKenzie and plays chess with her. He might wake up every morning with a literal jump out of bed and ready to start his day while I need a cup of coffee before I speak to anyone, but the life that we have already started to build is beautiful and we have forever ahead of us.
Lisa is my only sister. We have gone through every stage of life together seeing as we are 370 days apart in age (she’s older!). Lisa has always been the purple sister and I have always been the pink sister...if you know, you know! I can call Lisa to vent about my day or to gossip about our reality shows, she is always there for me. She is a fantastic mother of 3 and a hardworking office professional. I am so happy and proud to have her by my side as I say 'I Do'.
McKenzie is my daughter. She is the most amazing young lady you will ever meet. She is incredibly intelligent, caring, hilarious, beautiful and a great big sister to Weston. She is currently enrolled at Barry University in Miami, Florida on an academic scholarship studying Forensic Psychology while making the Deans List every single time! McKenzie also volunteers her time for several non-profits while working part-time. She loves to call me while walking to Dunkin’ for her morning hash browns or when she is walking across campus and doesn’t want to be alone. Having my daughter standing next to me on this special day is truly a blessing.
Anthony is my little brother by 6 years. He grew up idolizing me especially because I taught him everything he knows about playing the drums! When he decided to move to California to pursue being a musician, I lent him my drum set and look at him now! He is a well established artist in a band called This Wild Life (check them out on YouTube!). Even though he sold my drum set, without my knowledge or permission, I am extremely proud of his success and honored to have him by my side on this special day. Anthony lives in Utah with his beautiful wife, Morgan and their fur babies.
Frank is my twin brother and is 17 minutes older than me. As a twin growing up, we were close and did everything together. If you saw one of us, you saw the other. In our teenage years, we took up golf and played the sport regularly with our grandfather at Schenley Park. Though he has done well climbing the cooperate ladder, he still hasn't beat me in golf but it's fun to watch him try. I'd say what I've admired most is witnessing him become a loving husband and devoted father. He lives in Avonworth, PA with his beautiful wife, Casey, their fantastic kids, Cameron and Zoe and 2 fur babies. I am honored to have him by my side on this special day.
Weston is my son, but will be standing with Dave on our special day as his Ring Bearer. Weston is 9 years old and in 3rd grade. He loves playing Fortnite, eating blue Takis and wrestling with Dave or having an epic nerf gun battle. He is the funniest kid I know with the biggest heart.
