We all know the old saying that we will only find love when we least expect it. Although some hate hearing this sound piece of advice and many don't believe it's true, for some people, they REALLY weren't expecting it when they met their partners. In a viral Twitter thread, people have been sharing their funny and adorable stories about how they met their partners. Let's just say that the glorious stories really are seriously rom-com worthy. It all started when Twitter user Danny Mack (@iLoveeeLucy) tweeted out: "Someone tell me their love story. How’d you meet the person you’re with?"
The tweet got flooded with more than 400 responses, more than 280 retweets, and almost 1,000 likes. Some people's love stories were adorable and others were hilarious. The thread definitely serves as proof that we never know when the love of our life could pop up. It could be someone we knew as a child or it could be a stranger online. Sometimes all it takes is for someone to shoot their shot!
Many of the crazy love stories involved a bold move by one of the partners or a pretty bizarre circumstance that brought them together. But no matter how these couples came together, it is always nice to read a successful love story.
It just goes to show that we really never know when the right person is going to show up. Here are 15 people who found love in the wackiest ways.
ALMOST RAN HIM OVER
Sometimes a near-death experience can really give someone the courage he or she needs to make a move. Luckily for these two, everything worked out just wonderfully!
ENEMIES TURNED LOVERS
We don't always like the people we end up with at first. Actually, sometimes we apparently hate them. But, all it took for this couple was a cute Alice in Wonderland pin to seal the deal.
NEED A LYFT?
This woman's Lyft ride ended up being a one-way trip to forever! I guess you never know when you're next Lyft or Uber driver could be your soulmate.
LOVE AT FIRST TWEET
Sometimes a girl just needs to shoot her shot! Next time I see a cute guy on Twitter I might just have to slide in his DM's.
PUMP IT UP
Apparently, it's not always creepy when a guy asks for your number at the gas station. Sometimes it even ends in marriage and a kid!
YARD SALE
Well, she definitely didn't leave that yard sale empty-handed. You go, girl!
A WEDDING DANCE
Good thing she was determined to get that dance! Weddings really do bring people together.
BLIND DATE
A lot of the time a blind date can go horribly wrong, but this couple is proof that sometimes it actually work out pretty darn well! Shout out to that dentist!
FOR THE LOVE OF BATMAN
Pizza and Batman? Sounds like the perfect way to meet your soulmate to me!
COPY CAT
Many of us had that one smart kid in class who was sweet enough to let us copy work. Well, we might want to call that person up because it turns out that it could be our future spouse.
THE STARS ALIGNED
Clearly this couple was destined to be together. Can't fight the universe!
THANKS, MOM
It looks like mom really does know best! Note to self: Have my mom pick out my next date instead of my friends.
DINNER FOR TWO
That is one bold guy, but it obviously worked out in his favor. We're guessing dinner went pretty well.
LEASE NEGOTIATION
Sometimes one's soulmate is right under one's nose, or in this case, maybe it's the landlord. Wonder if she got a better deal on rent?
A TRUE DISNEY STORY
Waiting in line at Disneyland sounds like a pretty legit way to meet the love of your life. *Books trip to Disney.*
