Paige and Benjamin both lived in Houck House together freshman year at Ohio State. They had briefly met through their friend Madison who was also an engineering major. Paige became quick friends with Ben and the other boys in Delt during their Sophomore year. The two of them went to their first date party as “friends” sophomore year despite Ben trying to kiss

Soon after that, Paige and Ben became each other’s designated date party dates and Ben took Paige as his date to Delt’s Christmas Date Party.

While Paige worked abroad in Spain during the Summer of 2019, Ben woke up and facetimed Paige at 2am Illinois time every morning on Paige’s way to work.

Upon Paige’s return at the end of July, Ben came out to the Jersey Shore for his first time and asked Paige to be his girlfriend on August 2nd, 2019.

After graduating, Ben moved to Hartford, CT for his first job while Paige moved to NYC for hers. The two did long distance for about a year, although Ben would argue he came to NYC a lot more than Paige came to Connecticut…

In June of 2022, Ben got a job at an engineering firm in NYC and moved to the beloved Murray Hill.

In May of 2023, Benjamin moved into Paige’s apartment in FiDi. The two really learned how to work together during this time as they both worked from home several days a week with their desks situated 5 feet away from each other in the living room. You can imagine how challenging this was as soon as Ben began his career in sales the following year.

Finally, Paige and Ben, but mostly Paige, found their dream apartment in Battery Park with ample sunlight, a true one bedroom, a balcony and more than 1 closet (woo!).
