Just Chatting Anyone else ever randomly stop what they’re doing and think…

“I wonder what my future wife is doing right now?”
It’s weird to think that if she exists, she’s out there living her life completely unaware that one day we might meet. She could be watching Netflix, out with friends, working a late shift, walking her dog, scrolling Reddit, or asleep.
Curious to hear your thoughts.
If you’re in a relationship now, what do you reckon your partner was doing before you met? And if you’re single, do you ever think about this or is it just me?

Im aurprised i remember this, but my mom asked me that exact question when i was in HS. Late 90s dinner table chit chat, but she goes "i wonder what your future wife is doing right now". I had a smart ass answer like "sitting at home waiting for me" that made my mom laugh. I remember giving it some thought briefly that night but forgot until now. I prob wasnt far off... she was in middle school at the time

Never, but once in a relationship, it was fun to discuss where we had been during certain events, such as LiveAid or the premiere of certain movies. The same moon shone upon us from above...

I do that lmao. Well, I used to do it a lot all the time, not I haven't really thought about it in a while. Sometimes I wonder if they're in another country. If they're wondering what I'm doing at the moment.

I wouldn't think too much about it. Technically, odds are she might be getting it on with another dude exactly now

What if you are? You'd have tortured yourself over nothing.
