Just Coincidence?

    My name is Eli and I wrote this because I just wanted to share my experience. It really makes me wonder if destiny really exists or if everything is a simple coincidence .

 Since I was really young I was noticing some weird coincidence . For example when I was 11 years old I was reading the book “the number 33”. The main characters last name was Louvaris . Outside my house there is an Industry  with the name Louvaris. That year I went also to a Holiday Kids Camp , and I stayed with 5 more girls in the room 33 by chance .

  Last year , while I was on vacation ,on a Wednesday  I saw a dream

 my grandfather was searching for me , I traveled by  plane on a Thursday and when I met him I told him “I love you Grandpa” and hold him tight ,then I saw he disappeared.

 That day my mother woke me up , telling me that my grandfather was really sick and we had to leave immediately. But all the tickets for Wednesday were sold out , so we booked tickets for Thursday afternoon. Wednesday night I dreamed something similar again. A kid who was holding my hand and leading me into a flower shop . The kid told me “Lets buy some flowers for Grandma ! Lets buy the purple one !”  then I told him “No, not the purple one ,we aren’t mourning anyone , lets buy the orange one” but the kid insisted. On Thursday evening, when we reached my grandfather house , I hugged him and I told him that I love him so much, though he couldn’t move he found the strength  to take my hand and kiss it. Unfortunately  after two days he passed away and the purple flowers I saw in my dreams have grown outside his house.

 But some of the weirdest coincidences I’ve experienced with my boyfriend.

My Boyfriend and I met through Facebook on a November. I’m Greek and he is Chinese-Philippine.

   At first we were just endlessly chatting .Some weeks later, we were calling each other almost every night and discussing many things  till morning. We both felt very comfortable from the beginning , like we knew each other for  years.

  One year later , on November  he came in my town and we met face to face for the first time , soon  we fell in love and  our relationship began.  He decided to come in my town to study so we can  be together.

I’ve noticed some crazy coincidences between us.

• My boyfriend and my best friend (male)  are born in the same date 23/02. I’m born 23/11(if you add 1+1=2, so It matches), 23/11 is also our anniversary date. 

• His ex and my ex are born same day, same month (08/08) and we both broke up with them  one year before we met each other.

• His brother and my favourite cousin are not only born the exactly same date (18/3/1991) but they have the same rare name Aristotle. (how possible is that , his brother is phillipine-chinese as well) 

• We were both about to have one younger sibling , who didn’t make it to live. 

• My boyfriend was the only guy my grandfather ever met before he dies. And I was about to visit Philippines to met his beloved grandmother , but due to financial reasons , I wasn’t able. One month later his Grandmother came from Philippines to Greece and I managed to met her.

• And finally  in Greece we have a costume , On St.Fanouris Day on 27 August young girls, take a small piece of Fanouris Cake and put it under their Pillow. It is said that St.Fanouris will show them in their dream , some things about the man  they going to spend their life with.  At first of course I didn’t believe it , but my mom suggested me to do it , just to see what would happened. Because when she was young , it worked for her. So that night  I saw this Dream.

  ” Since I was 14 , I was attracted by Asian people,cultureand music  and I was really into kpop , so it was only naturall If I would have a dream about them.

  But the two kpop singers I’ve dreamed weren’t that random. The first one was born the same date as me 23/11 (2+3+1+1=7) and the second one is a Pisces and born 13/3 (1+3+3=7) He has 5 piercings , he is an expert on martial arts , the best cook between his band members , he  has  the bad boy type appearance .and  his stage name is the same as my real name (Eli).

  Then I saw the color purple ,which symbolizes February. And then I saw a young police officer  crossing from the pavement I was to the opposite.”

   

    My boyfriend added me on Facebook , on 16 November, at that time I was interested in a young police officer i’ve met. Nothing happened between us since we didn’t match.  When I met my boyfriend he had exactly 5 piercings, he is an expert on martial arts and he is a chef . He is a break dancer and he really looks like the bad boy type (he is adorable though). That time he had similar haircut with Eli as well. Oh yeah! he is born on 23 February so he is Pisces (2+3+2=7).

   

   Other strange stuffs? :

• I was about to press the decline button when he added me , because in his profile picture he looked a little bit weird , but something made me to press the accept button. (Thanks God!!)

• Some months later ( before we even met face to face), his uncle saw my photo and ask him “who is this girl?” , my boyfriend jokingly answered him “my girlfriend”. 

• Some weeks before he came in my town , he was in the Capital and in a relationship with a previous girlfriend , but it didn’t worked , so after they broke up he decided to visit my town as well and we met . He confessed me , that if he wasn’t in a relationship back then , he would probably met other girls and maybe never visited my town. 

• In my town ,stays his best friend’s sister with her long term boyfriend and when my boyfriend  came he stayed in their house. When he decided to study here and be with me. Suddenly the apartment, which is  exactly under his best friends sister’s house  , was free for renting. 

• Not only de he came in my town, but the same year, his best friend came to study here by coincidence . 

• Also  his ex girlfriend (with whom he was in the Capital) came for studies . His best friend and his ex were really good friends , but they had a big fight  3 days before my boyfriend came officially to study here. since then they didn’t speak to each other again .

• Finally my best friend (female), whom I know since I was 12,  is studying the same major as me in the same University and  her boyfriend also attends the same university , that my boyfriend attends.

   

I don’t really know if these facts are just coincidence or something else , either way I’m happy things went that way.…
