Follow-up to 2024's "Cupid" post.
Last year, on Valentine's Day, I shared the story of how my partner and I met. That post reached more people than I expected it to. Almost 1 million people read it on Reddit. It got shared on Twitter, Instagram, and probably more platforms. Then, Moneycontrol published an article out of it. Through the post, I (27M) connected with some genuinely nice people, too. Some reached out to congratulate. Some reached out for job advice. Some wanted help with their portfolio. Some wanted to know about advertising. It felt good to be able to help people out of a simple post. A year later, our lives have changed. We moved in together. We have our fights, because who doesn't. But our love grew stronger than ever. She (30F) supported me when I decided to quit my full-time advertising career and focus on freelancing as a copywriter. I was there for her when she decided to take the next step in her career. There were times when we suffered. Mentally, emotionally, financially. But we believed in each other and made it through. About 20 months ago, she didn't know about my existence. I wasn't aware of hers. And now, we can't spend a day without waking up next to each other. The reason for this post? I'm not sappy enough (barring this post) to think that anything of the sort ever works, at least on Reddit. But I couldn't be happier that I was proven wrong. If you ever wish to take a chance with the right intentions, do it. At worst, you'd at least have tried. And at best, you could have the most beautiful experience you didn't know you needed. I found my dream-come-true, thanks to this subreddit. Maybe, you will, too.5
