Everyone loves a good love story, especially in 140 characters or less.
Kat Angus, a Toronto-based staff writer for Buzzfeed, asked her Twitter followers on Saturday to recall the sweet moment they knew their current partner was the one they wanted to be with.
Please tell me about the first time you thought “oh yes, that person, they’re the one I want” about your significant other.
— Kat Angus (@katangus) October 22, 2017
The writer also shared her own story of when she knew her significant other was the one (and it had a bit of a twist):
Oh and mine: 1.5 years before we dated, I saw him do comedy and he performed a great bit about “former and latter” and I was like “yep, him”

(Awkwardly my boyfriend at the time was the one who took me to the comedy show)

Her tweets quickly went viral and the responses started pouring in. We’re not crying, you are!
I tried to break up with him when I was diagnosed with cancer. He showed up with flowers and french fries and said he wasn't going anywhere.

I was going to be in his town for the day. He hadn’t slept the night before. He still came to meet me because it was important to him.

Like 3 1/2 years ago I remember sitting on his kitchen floor with our backs together laughing at something only funny to us and thinking ya, I’d like to do this forever. https://t.co/GQCC1OoFf6

On our first date to the park he was just as excited as I was about a squirrel taking a whole piece of bread! 3 years going on forever pic.twitter.com/EfPKvSviFX

Date 5 when he introduced me to his friends. Watching him lead a conversation w/o overpowering others and being super funny was everything.

We had been out a few times, and one day he spent 30 minutes or so showing me pics of his niece. We're married with a baby of our own now. ❤ https://t.co/AV91Akfj4M

When we were walking back from a movie, he offered me his jacket and told me to ignore the saxophone mouthpiece in his pocket

Our 3rd date, jays game. Home run; I stand up, my foot right into his chipotle dip. He held my ankle just so, cleaning it off. Game over.
— Amberly McAteer (@amberlym) October 22, 2017
So cliche- I saw him from afar, sat down next to him. When he looked into my eyes and smiled-I knew. 7yrs and everyday feels like that 1st

She mentioned that she was writing a fanfic with the characters of Watchmen in the universe of Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. Irresistible!

Irresistible, indeed. More of these Twitter moments, please!
