There was an unspoken pandemic running rampant within the pandemic. It’s something that many of us faced, but very few of us spoke about. This unseen plague was infidelity, broken homes, and strained relationships. It was during this unsettled and uncertain time that Ben Osagie met his future wife, Lakeyia.
During this time, trust was at an all-time low in the dating scene. Apps like Tinder and Bumble were the only outlet for many single people seeking love. Bars and restaurants were either closed or take out only—it became impossible to meet someone.
It was through this learning experience, through the difficulties of finding and holding onto true love during the pandemic, that they decided to create DateGoal. A place where everyone can find the kind of love that Ben and Lakeyia found.
Both Ben and Lakeyia had troubled, difficult pasts and were saddled with the scars of the traumas that came with them. However, despite the personal hurdles they faced, through deep conversation, they found a way to discuss the efforts that were needed to allow the relationship to blossom.
Ben and Lakeyia are a happily married couple today. They met during the beginning of the pandemic and had to work through a lot of their past traumas to get to a trusting, loving place in their relationship. Without discussion, openness, and a lot of self-reflection—this simply wouldn’t have been possible, “Said Ben”.
How they overcame their wariness and doubt is not revolutionary, but it’s not necessarily typical. It required a level of openness and communication that is atypical of today’s dating scene. One by one, they deconstructed their pain points, their past hurts, the reasons for their hesitance.
By doing this, they were able to become one another’s the sturdy base of support. Communication is the cornerstone of any great relationship—and this was no different for Ben and Lakeyia.
As you’ll read below, Ben and Lakeyia are just two regular people that were able to break free of the chains of their traumas—and did it together. With DateGoal, they want to share the love that they’ve found with the rest of the world.
