Coming along with couple number 6, it’s pretty clear that just because you’re in a relationship, doesn’t mean you have to like Valentine’s Day! Which goes to show that it’s just a day, and partners should share how special they are to each other all the time and not just on occasions.
Here’s to you!
Cute Campus Couple
Jorge “Gaby” Oquendo & Natalia Calderon
How’d you two meet?
Snapchat! They both respond at the same time.
NC: During orientation week there was a Snapchat story, and I added him. Then, we just started talking.
How long have you been together?
NC: Since August.
JG: Six, seven months?
NC: Yeah, six months sort of!
What was the first thing you noticed about each other?
JG: Her lips.
NC: I thought you were going to lie and not say that!
She laughs.
NC: But the first thing I noticed was his hair.
What makes your relationship work?
JG: She’s the dominant one, so she’s the one that calms me down, and she knows everything. I’m like the little kid in the relationship.
NC: I was just going to say we’re like each other.
JG: No, yeah, we’re like each other, but I’m the one who storms off, and she’s the one that calms me down.
NC: Yeah, we complement each other. Salt and pepper!
One word to describe your partner.
NC: I’d say complicated.
JG: Interesting.
Any plans for Valentine’s Day or traditions?
JG: We hate Valentine’s Day!
NC: I was just planning to sleep in.
JG: I’ll bring her like a teddy bear.
NC: Ew! I’ll probably just burn it.
JG: Let’s burn it together.
Do you like Valentine’s Day, or are you the Valentine’s Day Grinch? Guilty on that second one! Whether you like Valentine’s Day or not or whether you care a lot about your relationship details or not, it doesn’t matter as long as you like, not just love, each other.
