In January 2009 I was in Killington, VT for a ski weekend that was planned at the last second with my girlfriend at the time and her friends. It was a Saturday night and we were at a bar called Jax. I was a few...maybe more...drinks in and was sitting at the bar next to my girl and we were ordering more. All of a sudden, someone shoves me from behind and puts me into a chokehold. The look on the bartender'​s face told me this could escalate quickly, so I stood up and held the attacker'​s arm in place around my neck so his feet would leave the ground. As I prepared to slam this person into a wall/window/floor/bar, my girlfriend grabbed me, screaming and laughing hysterically, and made me release. When I turned around, my roommate from college (Mac) was standing there grinning his drunken face off. I hadn'​t talked to the kid in months, so I picked him up, gave him a bear hug and ran him into the wall anyway. Turns out, he was there for the weekend too with another of our friends from college...we spent the rest of the night hanging out at the bar and reminiscing over cold Long Trail.

I think this is so weird/amazing... One day I went over to my boyfriend'​s place and in his room was a robe that caught my attention. It caught my attention because my grandmother gave the same exact robe to my brother. I asked where my boyfriend got it and he said a thrift store, and I'​m pretty sure my grandmother got the same robe from when she went to Japan years ago. So, on another day I brought the matching robe to his place and we both wore them, it was so funny.

The summer after my senior year of high school I started dating one of my best female friends. It was working out relatively well, but it was clear that I had much stronger feelings for her than she did for me. She broke up with me after a month or so, saying that she didn'​t want to have a boyfriend when she left for college because it would hurt too much to leave me behind. I was upset, but agreed to revert back to being just friends.

Not more than three days later, I found out that she was dating another guy, who I had previously been suspicious of while we were dating. I called her and said some things (some of which I regret) that most assuredly ended our friendship for good.

After having lost both a girlfriend and a best friend in one fell swoop, I left for college at the end of the summer depressed and rueful. I spent the semester wishing I had done things differently and regretting the decisions I had made in the previous months.

By winter break, I was ready to come home. On New Years Eve, I went with my friend Andrew to a huge party in LA, and I met a girl there. We danced, joked, and laughed together pretty much the whole night. As fate would have it, this girl happened to be the ex of the guy that my ex left me for in the beginning of the summer. We connected right away, and after a few weeks we started dating.

It'​s been one year and fifteen days since New Years Eve when I met my girlfriend, and we are still dating (and I heard through the grapevine that my ex and my girlfriend'​s ex had broken up because she cheated on him. Glad I got out of that one early!) We even go to the same school together now, and we have plans to move in together at the end of this school semester. I love her more and more every day, and she loves me too.

This was without a doubt the greatest, most life changing coincidence of my life. Thank you coincidink.com for giving me a venue to share my story!

I am from a small suburban town in central Massachusetts. I was down in Venice, FL visiting my grandparents over my spring break and we went to a popular restaurant in the area called Sharky'​s Pier. We sat down and our waitress came over to take our order. She was very friendly and we all got into talking about where we were all vacationers from. She found out I was from Groton and my grandparents were from Chelmsford (another town in MA). She then went on to tell us how she has relatives from Groton! A random restaurant in Venice, Florida with a waitress with family members from my small hometown where my graduating class at a regional high school was only 200 kids! At that same lunch there was a family sitting just a couple tables over from Chelmsford, where my grandparents are from, who lived just down the street. What a small world!

My friend and I were on spring break and decided we would take a trip from Villanova to Amherst to visit some friends at UMass. Upon our arrival, we met all of our friend'​s roommates and began to talk about our college experiences. Once my friend'​s roommate found out we went to Villanova, he said that he was familiar with the school because his younger sister was a freshman there. He then texted his sister to let her know that he was hanging out with two juniors from Villanova. She then told him that she only knew a few juniors, one of whom was named Colin (my roommate). The kid from UMass then asked me who my roommate was back at Nova. I replied, "​Colin"​ and it turned out to be the same Colin whom this kid was great friends with growing up. Colin also drove this kid'​s sister home from Villanova for our spring break. After finding out that my roommate was this kid'​s childhood friend, we all were surprised and laughing at how small a world it can be. What a Coincidink!

Side Note: UMass is the best party school ever, especially for Techno Tuesdays.

In the summer of 2008 some friends and I were staying in a house near Loreto in Baja California. Sitting in the small airport waiting for our plane I looked across the waiting room and saw a tall, blonde kid that looked surprisingly familiar. After a longer look the face became recognizable as Coco Dupont. He has been a friend of mine for about 4 years. He was by himself high fiving and shaking the hands of all the bar tenders and locals, speaking fluent Spanish. It was like he was one of the locals himself. He had taken a bus over 100 miles to go surfing for the weekend and hitched a ride to the airport to go back home. Seeing a familiar face in deep Baja California was as surprising as it was entertaining.
