"From the first week we met, I knew you would be in my life forever," Quigley wrote about Parx on January 14. "I am a believer, I believe in God, in fairy-tale love stories. Honoring my values, finding pure love, and someone who would pursue my heart, was something I prayed for daily."

"To be transparent, as a believer, I struggled for years being attracted to both men and women," she continued. "I told myself, for years it was something I wouldn't do again (date a woman). Being judged doesn't feel good, & that scared me. Until I met someone who showed me what love looked and felt like."

"She loved that I love Jesus and she loves Him too," Quigley wrote. "Someone who not only I thought was super beautiful from outside, but also the inside. Her eyes light my heart, and laugh fills me with more joy, her generosity with her time is unmatched and her constant pursuit of my heart, has made me feel like such a queen. Love is the most important gift of all and it has surpassed anything. Safe to say, I said 'YES' and I am no longer single lol."
