Love

stories

Let me guess.

Based on the silence I got last week, you’re mad.

Now rolling your eyes as I bring it up. I get you actually.

It’s love month. And yet I haven’t told you a single love story.

My bad. So here’s my lame attempt to appease you. Forgive me pls?

Here are the love stories that I collected from internet strangers so far:

❀❀❀

We met on campus at a coffee shop. She was doing her PhD and I started my masters. I knew it then. She was like... "we'll see". 😂 - Daniel A.

“My husband is Spanish, and I am of French-Italian descent. We met at a nightclub in Spain. I used to love going out and partying with my friends there. That was 16 years ago... Now we're married and have two children. And sometimes, I indulge in delicious pastries....” - Kris F.

❀❀❀

“We were colleagues for almost 3 yrs. Turned to friends, turned to lovers! ❤️ We were both Christians before we even met! 😍” - Karen

❀❀❀

“Actually we are a really different couple from head to toes and how we think. He's western and I am pure asian. We met for the first time on Tinder, not really a wow story haha. But he's my first match on tinder. We lived in different island before (I live in Papua and he lived in Bali) we brokeup for almost one year and when covid I moved here and got back with him.” - Tiffany

❀❀❀

“Hmmm I did internet dating for like 10 years before I found a good one lol. Two more serious boyfriends in that role…” - Joy N.

❀❀❀

“We met in the way most couples did before online dating was a thing...in a bar.

Turns out we had lived 2 blocks away from one another for almost 2 years before we met.” - Sara K.

❀❀❀

“Well I came from a long term relationship which lasted for 5 years and ended last 2023.

Since then, I never received flowers.

Then there’s this guy whom I met in a study place haha and he is expressive he likes me, but we were not on the same page.

After almost a year of getting to know him more, showing his persistent efforts…

Valentines finally came, he gave me flowers.

Well the flowers is just a symbol of how he might be the one I’ve been waiting for…” -P

❀❀❀

“We met on a dating app! It was love at first wink! Seriously! Our first date was magical and we haven't been apart since then! Ben's my guy ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Also we got met on 12.12.11 and we got married on 12.12.12 -Daphne A.

❀❀❀

“Our moms started to get to know each other from mutual friends and then we kind of met and her family started going to our church” - Logan G.

❀❀❀

I saw him sitting at a table by himself at a sidewalk café in downtown Los Angeles (I was driving) and I just knew that was the man I'd spend my life with. So I parked and went up to him 😂 we got married a little over a year later and had 5 children! ❤️❤️❤️ -Jenny

❀❀❀

So, what did I learn from all of this?

That love is weird. Unpredictable. Sometimes messy.

Despite all the chaos happening in this world, I’ll still believe in it.

And with that, our love month is nearly coming to a close.

I’ll be the first one to greet you haha.

Joyeaux end of love month!

Much luv,

Joy <3
