    Font - JinxyMcgee · 13 hr. ago Friend invited people out for drinks. He was there. He ended up next to me in the booth. Just sitting next to him was electric - I could barely breathe. It was to the point that even now, 11 years later, I remember every moment of that event. Been married 6 years, with one kid, and honestly couldn't have even imagined a better husband.

For 6 months I treated him like any other coworker but at a jobsite I fell in a hole and he grabbed my hand to help me out, the electricity was off the charts. Holding his hand took my breath away. I left my bf and pursued him, together 3+ years and counting.

    Font - redfoxrockinsox. 14 hr. ago We both attended the same college after high school. I knew immediately. The moment I saw him. He walked out of the elevator and it was that movie trope: time stopped, couldn't talk, colors were different, something moved in my soul. We had several classes together and we were music majors so we were always in the same places and at the same events.

    Font - It was not the right time then for either of us. We didn't date then but we did have several classes together and had a huge impact on each other's lives. Years later, we reconnected. Slowly started spending more time together. I would drive 400 mile round trips just to spend a few hours with him. I moved down to be close to him. Eventually we became best friends. A few

    Font - One day we got in and the power was out, turned out there was a big electrical fault. It was going to be a few hours before an engineer could come fix it, and we couldn't do much in the meantime, so boss man told us we could leave and he'd call us when things were working again. Well, me not knowing the town, I didn't really know what to do or where to go. So I went with the other waitress to a nearby park where her bf was playing footy with his mates.

Boss man called me back before I got a chance to speak with the cute goalie, but later that evening the other waitress was out drinking with them and it turned out cute goalie also thought I was cute. So she gave him my number.

    Font - WednesdayWoods. 17 hr. ago This is a long one but I promise it's cute and worth it. Picture it, Halloween weekend 2022. I had just changed into my comfiest pajamas pants and a sweatshirt and was going to enjoy a Friday night home with a buffalo chicken cheesesteak and a movie. My friend from school reminded our group that we were supposed to meet up for karaoke at a bar in town and wanted to know what time we wanted to get together.

    Font - I sighed, thinking whether or not I wanted to get up and get myself put together or if I wanted to fall asleep on the couch at 10 p.m. Well, I got dressed and ready and headed out to my friends to go to the bar. When I walked in, I saw this cute bartender who my friend knew from a previous job. They chatted, I asked what his deal was, she said last time they talked he had a girlfriend but she'd ask - turns out, they had split. Cut to the next time I

    Font - need a drink, I asked cute bartender for another and a glass of water, to which he promptly responded "we don't serve that here," and I without hesitation said "that's fine...I'll just die” and he laughed at me. When he came back, he stuck his hand out and introduced himself to me. For the rest of the night he was being cute and flirty, and I was smiling for the first time in forever.

    Font - At the end of the night, I handed him a lone pink starburst to throw out because I dislike them and wasn't going to eat it. He told me I got the unicorn, I told him they were gross. He took it, threw it away and said "and here I was about to ask for your number...but you hate pink starbursts..." and the rest, my friends, is history. He's everything I've ever wanted in a partner and he's my best friend...he's really the unicorn.
