✨BLACK FRIDAY WEEKEND SALE✨ This weekend from Friday-Monday get 50% of the 1 month VIP Elite package! 🖤 Have questions about VIP Elite? Drop them below 👇🏽 #blackfriday #blackfridaysale #thanksgiving #sale #dilmil #datingWe're VERY thankful for our Dil Mil family. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 🦃 💕While the lockdown led to different experiences for all of us, it was the start of something new for Akshay and Parul. They had both joined Dil Mil looking for something real, and started talking on April 4th, 2020 (at 8:31pm to be exact). Luckily they lived within an hour of each other in the Chicago, Illinois area, and met for the first time on April 13 at a mall parking lot (a quintessential lockdown date spot). 🚗 They sat in the car and talked about life for hours. At the end of the date, Akshay pulled out his phone and asked Parul to delete his Dil Mil app. They both knew this was the real deal. Since the state was in lockdown, they spent a lot of time together bonding and getting to know each other on a deeper level without any distractions. It felt like they didn’t need anyone else when they were together! They bonded over Bollywood movie dialogues and laughed until their stomachs hurt. 🎥😂 Being from the same area, they were surprised that their paths had never crossed. But Akshay had a secret — Dil Mil was actually not the first time he saw Parul! She had popped up on his suggested friends on Facebook a few times, and he had DEFINITELY checked out her profile but didn’t want to be that creepy guy shooting his shot in the “other” folder of Facebook message requests. As luck would have it, one day she popped up on Dil Mil and he swiped right without a second thought. 😍 The happy couple tied the knot this May in Chicago, but like any pandemic wedding, the experience did not come without its challenges. Paul and Akshay both ended up getting covid during their wedding week, and had to postpone the wedding. They were just grateful to have each other and their health, which is all that matters at the end of the day. We’re so happy the couple was able to make a full recovery and celebrate their special day with friends and family! 🥰🎉 Love stories like this are a true reminder that nothing can get in the way of true love, and some things are just meant to be.
