Kate Mullen and Wes Skillicorn complemented each other’s personalities — especially when life threw them a curveball.
After connecting with Kathryn Elizabeth Mullen on the Hinge dating app in April 2020, Weston Hjalmar Skillicorn suggested meeting at 8 p.m. in a remote mountain location outside Denver to watch the sunset the next day.
“I was so creeped out,” said Ms. Mullen, who goes by Kate. “I texted my friends, and they were like, ‘No. He’s going to murder you.’”
Mr. Skillicorn said he just thought it would be “cool,” because there was going to be a full moon and he was going to bring along a bottle of wine.
Instead they agreed to meet a week later, in daylight, in Washington Park. Unfortunately, Denver experienced record-low temperatures that day: 11 degrees. “I remember my teeth chattering while we talked,” Ms. Mullen, 30, said.
The two still chatted for hours, eventually moving the conversation to his car. “It was way better than I could have imagined,” Mr. Skillicorn, 33, said. “I don’t talk too much, and I was keeping pace.”
They talked about everything, they said, from religion to politics. “We got in the trenches,” Ms. Mullen said. “I felt like we had been on five dates.”
