Once upon a time, a girl named Nacrissa (Nac/Katie) and a guy named Vissari (Vis/Alex) met while playing a game called TERA Online. You see, Nacrissa and Vissari were bored max level players who liked getting into a little mischief. Their choice of mischief? PK'ing (player killing) unsuspecting lowbies by offering to help with a quest. Sure it wasn't the most honorable, but it was the most hilarious to them. They would do this for hours until someone would get angry enough to swap to their main. That's when the real fun would begin! Nacrissa was a mystic, which is a class of healer and Vissari was a warrior, a class of damage-dealing tank. Basically, they were unkillable so most times people would give up. While they did this, they would talk for hours about anything and everything. Who would have known that this was the beginning of a budding romance?
Nacrissa and Vissari quickly moved from only talking in the game via guild chat and whispers, to talking on MSN and Skype. Everyone in the guild knew that they were quickly becoming an item. Finally, one night shortly after July 4th (July 6th to be exact) Vis asked Nac to be his girlfriend. Embarrassed for asking it, he blushed 50 shades of pink (Vis will deny this to his grave, but he did) and Nacrissa said yes.
The only major drawback to their long-distance relationship was the time zone difference. Nacrissa was East Coast and Vissari was West Coast -- 3 hours, but they made it work!! They had many date nights while long-distance but their first one was the most memorable. Nac and Vis ordered food for each other (a surprise pick) online and picked out a comedy- Tropic Thunder to watch. By the end of the movie, Nac was ready to pass out and well... she did. Vis never ended the call and watched her until he too fell asleep. These dates became a weekly affair every Friday or Saturday. They would choose games to play (TERA Online, World of Warcraft, Diablo, Heroes of the Storms and League of Legends), watch movies, and talk about everything and anything.
After about 6 months, Vis decided he wanted to have something for them to wear and have. He found a site called Loving from a Distance that offered these unique bracelets. Vis bought them as a surprise and only told Nac of the plan once it arrived and shared that he had one too. (Side note: if any long-distance couples are looking for a great resource and community, LFAD is an amazing site! We utilized it so much.) They went on to wear these symbols for almost 6 years until they retired them so they wouldn't break.
Once they were together for a year, they decided to take it to the "next, next level" and so Vis got on a plane and flew from Oregon to Florida to be with Nac. He stayed with her for three weeks and from the moment they met until the moment he left, it was pure magic. It was like they had always been together for years. This was encouraging but tough when Vis had to leave. Once he landed back in Oregon he had a tough decision. Stay there or to move to Florida? After a few weeks time, he made that decision to pack-up and start over anew with Nac. He packed up everything important to him, said his goodbyes and made the 3,000-mile trek that took close to four days of non-stop driving. This was the beginning of something amazing. When he arrived at her house, this way of letting her know was a picture of her cat curled up on his chest. Tali didn't like many people, but she loved Vis!
For the next several years, Nac and Vis spent their time being apartment dwellers while they discovered what industries they loved to work in. Vis discovered finance and Nac discovered Healthcare. In November 2016, Vis and Nac purchased a house and moved in right before Thanksgiving! It was an amazing time in their lives as they started a new path. Nac stayed in healthcare until 2018 and also accepted a position at the same finance firm as Vis. Vis began to teach Nac about everything he knew about the industry since she was going to be working with stocks and they carpooled together. They also got to have lunch together regularly as well!
On February 1st, 2019, Alex proposed to Katie while play wrestling during their staycation. She was confused at first until he showed her the ring. She said yes! On March 15th, 2019 Alex and Katie sold their house to prepare for their big move to Oregon. Unfortunately, their plan was delayed due to her mom's health. However, in May her mom received her clean bill of health. Alex and Katie are looking forward to continuing their journey and making their move in May 2020!
Vissari (Alex) and Nacrissa (Katie) WILL have their happily ever after, even if they have to wait a bit longer.
