The couple in the long distance relationship had to come together sooner or later, and they did just that in Fairfield’s university area this month!
Gary was living in his New York apartment and working in Manhattan. Jackie was working and living in her house in New Hampshire with her son. Every Friday, Gary took the train to Boston and then drove another half hour to Jackie’s house to be with her for the weekend. He didn’t mind the weekend trips, but travel and distance was still a barrier between them.
Since Jackie had a house to sell and didn’t know how long it would take, they figured they would rent in Fairfield where Gary’s parents live until they could get more settled with their plans. It turns out, I had the perfect house to show them, and they loved it. Jackie put her house on the market the next week and sold it in one day!
So they came together in Fairfield, and the rest is history!
