Man Spots Himself in the Background of His Fiancée’s Childhood Family Photo
Metro (U.K.) ^ | 11 Dec 2017 | Miranda Larbi

If you ever needed proof that fate is real and that some relationships are just meant to be, hold onto your cynical hats. Let’s rewind back 10 years. Verona Koliqi, who now lives in London but is originally from Kosovo, was visiting a beach in Montenegro with her family. They look the classic family holiday pictures and probably thought no more about them. Until Verona, a decade later, was examining one of the photos from the beach trip with her fiancé Mirand and noticed that the little boy floating on a lilo in the sea behind the Koliqi family. ‘He noticed the kid in the back had the same shirt, shorts and floaty as him,’ she says. ‘We analysed further and confirmed with family members that it’s him photobombing my family photo.’

Yep, turns out that Mirand’s family were holidaying at exactly the same spot at exactly the same time and his family have since confirmed the fact. The pair never actually met as kids…in fact, it wasn’t until the summer of 2016 that their paths crossed again in Kosovo. And a year later, they got engaged.

So who knows, maybe you already know your future life partner.

After I had gotten out of the service I met a woman and we started dating. After about 2 years a relative was getting married so we went. We sat by my mother during the reception. My girlfriend was telling a story about her family and my mom jumped in about half way through and told the rest of the story.

Turns out that we knew each other as kids, our parents had been friends, and we didnt recognize each other. It was kind of weird for a while, it was a feeling like I had just found out I was dating my sister or something. She felt the same. We dated for a few more years.

My little ice pick in the eye and I have been together 26 years now. Cant imagine that there will be a day when one of us will wake up without the other.

I agree. Who is in charge? The Omniscient God, Who has foreknowledge.

I once worked at an urban ghetto school in Bryan, TX.

I’d rant about it here on FR.

Another FReeper ranted about the issue too.

Turns out she worked at the very same school. She was a coworker!

My wife and I took our ACT test at the same place. We were from different high schools and lived in different towns.
We didn’t officially meet until 2 years later.
