From the Editor

February is not only the month of love, but in Jacksonville, it’s the month of breakthrough warmth. We get to wear skirts sooner than the rest of the country and eat our boxes of chocolate outside. We also get to unabashedly parade ourselves as pairs around the city in the glory of St. Valentine. This month, several local couples share their stories and experiences with love, from how they met to how much they enjoy working together. Some met through friends and some met in situations that had they never occurred their entire lives would be different. Some are meant to be, and some made it their destinies. So when you see them on the streets of Jacksonville, instead of rolling your eyes, remember their stories and celebrate the art of Cupid. This month, say yes to temptation, and yes to your heart. Sometimes it’s necessary to rely on your feelings to realize what you want. Once you find what your heart desires, your match is sure to follow.
