"But I was adamant I didn't want to try a dating website.

I'm of an age where before social media, you met a girl, took her phone number and called to invite her out."When I asked a friend if she knew anyone she thought I'd get on with, she cheekily replied, 'I do – but she's way too good for you.' I laughed and told her, 'She's the one that I want!' We hit it off from the start.

We talked every day about our shared values and goals, and our love for our families. We've always been on the same page."WATCH: 10 of the most spectacular HELLO!
