Jose & Trista
Our Love Story
Once upon a time, Trista had just stepped away from a toxic relationship, finding herself at the lowest point in her life. At the same time, Jose, fresh out of the military and on the brink of moving back to his hometown, Las Vegas, felt a void in his life—a longing for someone to share his life with. Fate had its own plans, and it wasn’t long before they stumbled upon each other on a dating app. Initially, neither thought much of it. Trista, weary from her past, and Jose, ready to start anew elsewhere, didn’t expect much from their casual online introduction.
However, destiny had a different script for them. Despite their initial hesitations, they quickly found themselves drawn into hours-long conversations over FaceTime and phone calls. They shared stories from their days, laughed, and connected on a level neither had anticipated. It wasn’t long before they decided to meet in person for their first date. The connection was undeniable, and from that day on, there was never a dull moment between them.
With their bond growing stronger, Jose decided to reroute his plans and stay in Colorado. He moved in with Trista, and together, they embarked on their first adventure of cohabitation in a cozy one-bedroom apartment, along with a fat grey cat named Carbon. This new living arrangement was a series of firsts for both—not just living with a significant other, but truly building a life together away from the familiarity of family.
Their home was filled with laughter, a testament to the humor that became the backbone of their relationship. They had an uncanny ability to echo each other's thoughts and jokes effortlessly—sometimes saying the same thing simultaneously, making everything feel just right. Though there were inevitable bickers and hardships, their shared sense of humor and love for each other turned every challenge into a stepping stone.
As they grew together, their family expanded with the addition of another black cat and a dachshund, enhancing the joy in their household. Eventually, they moved to a larger two-bedroom home, giving everyone—including their pets—more space to thrive.
Through it all, Trista and Jose learned and grew, not just as a couple, but as best friends navigating life together. Yes, they faced many challenges, but with each obstacle came greater strength in their bond. Love came easily, and they built a home that was truly a reflection of their love—a place filled with laughter, warmth, and an understanding that no matter what life threw at them, they would make it through together.
And so, Trista and Jose continue to live, love, and laugh, each day writing new pages of their own beautiful love story.
