You don't think this stuff really happens? *ahem (I can't believe this is relevant to a Star Wars forum lol)
This ACTUALLY HAPPENED to me:
2000 some girl Julie IMed me on AIM randomly cuz she liked my name (we'll say Frank lol) and so was searching for people from my state with the name Frank. So we met up and would hang out 2 or 3 times a year. In 2002 I went to college and met this girl Kerri, with whom I became good friends and would often drive her home to her town which was next to Julie's, so I said Julie I will be in your town a lot we can hang out. Meanwhile, at my college was this kid James who was Kerri's friend from high school who was always talking about a girl Kelly he liked. in 2003 after not having spoken to her for a year I hung out with Julie for Christmas and she took me to her workplace and introduced me to her best friend Kelly. I had never mentioned Kerri to Julie or vice versa, but it turns out Kelly, her best friend, was now the girlfriend of James, who was Kerri's friend, and who also worked at that particular place.
This stuff happens people
