Enchanted by fate
Once upon a time.. okay, let’s not pretend it was some grand, fairy-tale beginning - two unsuspecting humans were going about their lives, completely unaware that the universe had plans to throw them together like a chaotically beautiful rom-com.
Meet Joe, living in Manchester, UK where the skies are grey, the tea is always hot, and the worker bees buzz. He studied Pharmacy at Bradford and was working at a law firm (because why not throw in a little legal drama, right?). Meanwhile, Noor, living it up in Bangalore, India, was all about Dentistry, living a life filled with family, food, and far less rain than Joe ever saw!
Here’s where the magic happens: in 2019, Noor packed her bags and moved to the UK to take her dental licensing exams. But then—plot twist—COVID-19 decided to show up uninvited. Exams? Postponed! But what do you do when life throws a curveball? You roll with it, of course! Noor decided to take on a Master’s program, which—surprise, surprise—led her straight into Joe’s orbit. They became fast friends.
But here’s the kicker: life, as it always does, threw them another curveball. They drifted apart for a bit, probably due to different schedules, a few too many cups of coffee, and probably some very serious life planning (read: adulting).
But just when you think the story's over.. nope, fate wasn’t done with them. In a dramatic twist (cue dramatic music), their paths crossed again! And as they spent more time together, they began to realize that their connection was much deeper than friendship, this was something way more exciting, more electric, more.. well, destined. With a dash of courage and a sprinkle of family blessings, Noor took the plunge and asked for permission to spend more time with Joe (because why not start things off with some proper, family-approved romantic gestures?). And soon enough, their families were all in, meeting, laughing, and celebrating the love story that was meant to be.
Now, Joe, working in Manchester, and Noor, working in Nottingham, found themselves in a long-distance relationship. Despite the miles, they found a way, balancing work, life, and love—never letting distance or the busyness of their careers stand in the way.
Fast forward to today: with mutual respect, love, and a whole lot of laughs, Joe and Noor are embarking on this amazing adventure together. Here’s to the unexpected, the serendipitous, and, of course, the fact that when you meet your person, you just know. With their families' blessings and surrounded by love, they look forward to the next chapter in their story—one that proves no matter how big the world is, fate always has a funny way of making sure two people find each other.
