Meet Sharrin & Tyler from upstate NY

Sharrin has three siblings and is the second to youngest. Tyler is the youngest of three older brothers. The couple met at Sharrin’s high school graduation party. She said, “When I met him I thought to myself, ‘there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for this man’’.” After the graduation party, the two went their separate ways. Just a little over 3 years ago, they reconnected through social media. Sharrin said, “In the moment I didn’t realize our first date was a date. I just thought we were hanging out and catching up. I didn’t think I was good enough to be with him.” Tyler said, “I didn’t want the date to end. I couldn’t wait to talk to her again.” Tyler took her to her favorite restaurant and after the date she had a conversation with one of her girlfriends about it. Her friend said, “That was definitely a first date!” The couple loves nature. Their trip to Howe Caverns marks the beginning of a new year for Sharrin. She said, “It’s my 35th birthday! (Friday, 4 April) For me, that’s a major milestone. I have struggled with depression my whole life. This is my year to shed everything that no longer serves me and to step into the life that I now know I deserve.” Tyler said, “My favorite thing about Sharrin is that she always keeps a smile on my face” Sharrin said, “My favorite thing about Tyler is that he has shown me a love that I never knew existed before him.” The couple wants to tell the world, “If you are struggling with depression, please remember, it’s just a moment. Even if those moments come often, try to find your silver linings. There is always something to be grateful for, no matter how insignificant it may feel in the moment. You are never alone. There is help and there is no shame in asking for help. Never ever give up on yourself.” Happiest of Birthdays, Sharrin!
