Couple crossed paths 16 years before meeting

When I was looking for a pleasant blog yesterday, I came across an interesting article.

"A New Jersey couple were shocked when they discovered they had crossed paths 16 years before they had even met.

Jourdan and Ryan Spencer were watching Jourdan’s childhood home videos of her family’s July 1988 trip to Sesame Place in Langhorne, Pennsylvania a few years ago when something surprising came across the TV screen.

“I was kind of joking around and said, ‘Wow, that looks like me,’” Ryan, 40, told ABC News. “And sure enough, that was me.”

Did anything like that ever happen to you or anyone you know?

Nope, can't say it has, but it would be kind of neat if it did.

Elaine I can't recall something like this happening to me. I find it interesting that couples who met in the war years and then were separated due to circumstances. Fifty or sixty years later they are reunited through research on the Internet or by fate. I truly believe in situations like this they were meant to get back together again. Truly our destinies are truly meant to be.

Don't get me started on reunions. I cry whenever I see one of those shows.

This situation was very shocking. Imagine looking at old videos and seeing someone you later loved and married but never knew then. That's what happened here. Very weird indeed. Thanks for your comment, Shartaun03.

Unusual story. But no, nothing like that ever happened to me.

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.
