It could be argued that every romantic comedy follows the same formula: boy meets girl (or vice versa), trouble ensues, the resolution unfolds and they then live happily ever after. However, most people fail to realise that there is one key moment that sets off this veritable maelstrom of emotion, and that is the "meet cute".
If the phrase isn't self-explanatory enough, the "meet cute" is the precise instant in a movie where the future lovers first encounter each other. And in typical
Hollywood fashion, this normally happens in an incredibly unbelievable and quirky way. Now, one
Twitter user had been ruminating on the whole concept of a "meet cute", and decided to ask the people of the internet whether "meet cutes" actually happen in real life.
She wrote, "Do meet cutes actually happen in real life? I wonder if theres sb here who bumped into their future wife on the street, spilled
coffee over a cute stranger, dated their delivery man".
