When Tyrique was in college, his roommate Donny—who was dating Lexi’s best friend—tried to set them up. At the time, she wasn’t interested and paid him no attention. Fast forward four years, both newly single, Tyrique randomly texted her around Thanksgiving. She almost didn’t reply, but that one message sparked something unexpected.
