When actor Colman Domingo was walking into a Walgreens in 2005, he was immediately taken by a handsome stranger who was walking out at the same time.
The two ended up locking eyes across the parking lot once Colman left the store, but the handsome man and his friend left before Colman could approach.
Unable to get the encounter off his mind, self-proclaimed “hopeless romantic” Colman decided to check out the Missed Connections section of Craigslist three days later, and on the second page, he saw an ad about him from the man — Raúl Aktanov.
Colman had no doubt that the listing was for him, and in an even bigger twist of fate, Raúl had only posted the ad two hours before Colman got the urge to look.
Three days later, the two arranged to meet, and when they were still together at 4 a.m. the following morning, Colman said: “I think I love you, and you're about to change my life.”
Suffice to say, he was right. Colman and Raúl have been together ever since, and married in 2014.
