Kate and Michael have been together for a little over three months after first meeting each other on Tinder. Kate tells us things have been great for the most part, but her friend told her the other day that she found a wedding registry site where Michael was the groom. Unfortunately the website was password-locked, but the wedding is in Maryland so Kate is worried that she is the side piece to Michael’s potential fiancé.
We call Michael pretending to send him free flowers and when we ask Michael who he wants to send them to, he asks if we can send them to someone named Stephanie. Find out what’s really going on in this week’s War Of The Roses!

About three months?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Okay? According to your email, was more casual at first
and then became committed. Yeah.

half that it's gotten, you know, a little more serious.

happy with the way things have been going.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Okay. Have we had the boyfriend girlfriend talk?
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
No, we did that. I guess a month ago, like
when they started to get serious. I'm like, so we're

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Okay, So Michael hasn't met my friends yet, and my
best friend is of course very curious and started doing
some digging and she found a wedding registry under his
name with a woman named Stephanie. But he has a
really common name.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Sure, and so.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
She couldn't see any pictures. You needed like a password
to get into I'm.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Looking at the screenshots. Now that's tough. So there's no
I mean, so there is somebody with Michael's last name
getting married to a Stephanie, but we all know if that's.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Right, and I mean we just know it's in Maryland,
and like, okay, you.
Speaker 1 (02:14):

there a reason why he hasn't met your friends? More
so you don't think the timing's right. Has he been
against it?

you when you went there? Or did he introduce you
as a friend?
