The expression “love finds its own way” may sound like an outdated cliché to many people, but it proved to be accurate for these two old flames who got back together 30 years after they were each other’s childhood infatuation.
Justin Pounders, age 33, met Amy Giberson, the lady who would go on to become the love of his life, on the dating website match.com. Justin fell in love with Amy the moment he laid eyes on her. The words that came out of Justin’s mouth were, “I can’t articulate it, but I knew I wanted to get to know this girl.”
Amy said, “I tried to make him laugh by telling him, ‘Well, it’s not me, so I don’t want to hear about her.’”
After some time, the couple asked their parents to look for old pictures of them when they were younger. When the images were found, it was revealed that the young lady who had a crush on Justin was really Amy!
Amy and Justin’s close friendship started when they were only 3 years old, but at the time, neither of them had any clue that it would one day lead to a relationship that would last a lifetime. Fast forward 30 years, and they are now in a relationship that will last a lifetime.
Justin said that “someone or something concluded decisively” that the two of them weren’t meant to rejoin until the current moment, and he attributed this decision to “someone or something.”
“We were barely a hair’s width away from finding each other the whole time, but we held off until it was the appropriate opportunity to do so. And with that, this concludes our discussion.”
