Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it you can never get it back.
My neighbor met his partner because of a wrong number.
Not destiny. Not vibes. Just pure mistake.
He texted: “Bro, are we still on for football tomorrow?” ⚽
She replied: “Who is this?”
Instead of apologizing like a normal person, he said, “Depends. Are you fun?”
That should’ve been the end.
Instead, she said, “Try me.”
And that was it. Chaos unlocked.
They started texting as a joke. Then daily updates. Then random selfies. Then “why am I smiling at my phone like this?”
He found out she lived in the same city. She found out he couldn’t spell properly when he was tired. He found out she sends 7 voice notes instead of typing one sentence. She found out he pretends not to care but absolutely does.
One day she said, “You know this is weird, right?”
He said, “Yeah… but stop texting me first then.”
She didn’t.
The first time they met, both of them brought a friend “just in case.” The friends ended up third-wheeling while these two forgot the rest of the world existed.
Now they tell people they “met through mutuals.”
The mutual was a typo.
Love really said autocorrect. 😭
