Real Story in San Francisco
“I work as a photographer in San Francisco and live alone in the city. My life is simple but sometimes quiet. One day at a café I often visit, she sat next to me while ordering, and we started talking casually. That was how we slowly got to know each other. As we spent more time together, we realized we were both honest and comfortable with the pace of our connection. Later, her job transferred her to Los Angeles, and we had to seriously consider whether to continue. Although we hesitated about long-distance dating, neither of us wanted to give up easily. Now we video call regularly and plan visits when possible, keeping the relationship going across cities.” View More >>
