Reading: Five Love Stories — How we met

Five Love Stories

Here are five short love stories from our readers in Seattle and Denver.

First, Steve and Brittany fell in love at first sight when they dropped their luggage on a busy train platform. Steve wanted to ask her out, but his phone battery died, so he used a public phone.

Then, Tom met his girlfriend by pure coincidence. He dialed a wrong number while he was trying to call his niece about a flight.

Although the dog ran away during their walk, Sarah and Mark found each other while they were searching the park in the rain.

Next, Jessica and David met because they both had a power cut during a major blackout in the city.

Finally, Alex and Claire moved into a small apartment in Seattle last year. They met because they both answered the exact same online advertisement for a flatmate!
