“The Love Experience” is an editorial project that features dynamic couples in love. The series, shot by fashion photographer, Bryce Lennon, aims to highlight diversity within the world of fashion.”
We’re more than half way through the month, and there are still quite a few couples to get through. That having been said, we have another dynamic duo ready to take their former platonic relationship to new heights. Yes, they were friends first! Cute, right? Now that we have your full attention, join us in welcoming Kassiah and Meese to “The Love Experience!”
The happy couple originally met back in high school, which cemented their friendship early. It wasn’t until years later that Kassiah would begin to pursue Meese romantically. Why all of a sudden now? What’s the whole story? According to Meese, “Kassiah and I met in 2002 at an anti-smoking convention aimed at high school students. It wasn’t love at first site since we were friends for almost seventeen years. Kassiah began to pursue me romantically, and it took me a while realize he wanted to be more than just friends. He began hanging out more, taking me out to dinner, and before I knew it, we were in a relationship.”
You hear that everyone? Use a healthy friendship to start planting seeds in your future relationship. Remember, it only takes time and consistently to keep the ball rolling. Kassiah and Meese agree, and had this to say, “For all the hopeful lovers out there, make sure you develop a strong foundation through friendship. This will give you the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level, one that you may not reach if you jump right into a romantic relationship too fast. It definitely creates a stronger foundation for your journey together.”
Thank you Kassiah and Meese for sharing your love story with us! If everything plays out correctly, we hope to see you at the wedding alter very soon. Best of luck!
