A Minnesotan…
Matthew Logelin was the son of Tammy and Tom Logelin. He was born and raised in Minnetonka, Minnesota and had three younger brothers. The family was “Minnesota nice” in the way they behaved. Yes, “Minnesota nice” has transformed into being just a vague term initially to a real thing now. If you are unaware of it, then let me tell you that the term is used to describe the pleasant, warm and extremely helpful nature of the Minnesotans which you can see them endorsing throughout the state. But, Matt’s life was not that amicable with him. Honestly, “not being amicable” is still too mild a word when describing his life. Read on to find out why?
Found Love!
Matt was a good student during his school days Who knew that this bright boy from Minnesota would fall in love with a girl in a way similar to show in movies. Well, the way everything panned up for him would have surely cemented his belief that he would have done some extremely good deeds in his past life, benefits of which he was reaping now. Wondering what had happened? Don’t worry you’ll find all your answers in the upcoming slides.
That Lucky Gas Station!
It was an area gas station where Matt Logelin and Liz Goodman first saw each other. Though the encounter was a short one between the two who were in their high school senior year, it was enough for them two realize that they were made for each other. Eventually, it didn’t take them much time to start dating. But, they were unaware of the fact that their newly born relationship was going to take a drastic turn…
An Early Jitter…
It seemed that fate decided to throw a challenge in order to test Liz and Matt’s love for each other when they both went on to attend different colleges after completing their high school. Matt pursued sociology at the University of Minnesota whereas Liz enrolled at a college in California. The couple were unperturbed by these events and went on to maintain a long-distance relationship proclaiming their immense love for each other.
Couldn’t Hold Any Longer
The couple displayed a commendable amount of patience and conviction as they continued to stay in a long-distance relationship in between which Matt completed his Master’s Degree at Chicago’s Loyola University. Though he had the chance of continuing his study for a Ph.D. degree, the pain of staying away from the love of his life, Liz, was becoming unbearable for him. So what did Matt resort to?
LA’s The Way!!
Well, Matt decided to stop studying further and moved to Los Angeles. The reason being that his soulmate Liz, had landed a job as a manager at Disney in LA with whom he was getting reunited after years. After Matt took this decision it became more probable that the two had decided to stay together forever. But, though it seemed a smooth sail for the couple their ship of love had still not reached the shore!!
Shared Wanderlust!
The couple justified the saying that, “Opposites Attract”. The reason for me saying this is that holding completely opposite views on things and when it comes to likes and dislikes was something that strengthened their bond even more. Matt was a lover of indie rock whereas Liz fancied Justin Timberlake and they loved to give their other half the freedom to pursue and do whatever one wanted.
