Brit and Kathy met on lesbianproposals.com. Their first phone call was memorable for the two of them (“I was hooked. I remember asking myself, have I really found a bigger button pusher than I am?” Brit recalls), and after the first date their romance was a foregone conclusion. After six months of dating, they moved in together with their little black pug Milo. It’s been two years now, and their love is burning as strongly as it ever has. “The thing that keeps us alive is communication and laughter,” says Kathy. “Brit is my best friend, the love of my life. What makes our relationship strong is my weaknesses are her strengths, and vice versa. It’s an amazing balance that I couldn’t match with anyone else.” Romance plays a big role in the relationship, whether it’s through leaving cute notes for each other or making time for date nights. They’re sealing the deal by getting married in Connecticut this June.
