A woman spotted herself in a random photo of her husband which was taken years before they even met.
Ailiz Melina Zambrano Pinargote, 26, from Ecuador, was looking through childhood photos of her husband when she spotted something unbelievable.
Ailiiz spotted herself as an 11-year-old staring at the camera.
"One day we went to my mother-in-law's house and I asked her to show me my husband's photo album from when he was a child and that's when we discovered the photo," she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.
She said, "We were totally surprised, we couldn't believe it, it gave us fear, happiness, many emotions because it is incredible that the photographer in the middle of the parade stopped him right at that moment where I appear looking at him."
Ailiz added, "I don't remember anything about the photo, because I was a young girl and I didn't know him, I hadn't seen him. I just remember that every year we went to the city parades with my mom."
Ailiz didn't actually meet her husband Pedro until she was 17. She had spotted him around her local town, but never had the courage to speak to him.
However, fate brought them together properly when she saw him outside her university.
"I was about to enter my classroom when it turned out that Pedro was sat on a bench outside the classroom. I saw him and he looked at me (he had never seen me before), at that moment I smiled and I was very embarrassed because I'm not flirty and that was the first time something like this had happened," Ailiz said.
She continued, "I carried on and entered my classroom... (he says that with that smile it confirmed that I liked him) and after three days he wrote to me on Facebook."
The pair spent the next fortnight talking to one another after which Pedro proposed to her. The couple has now been married for a year and 10 months.
Here's what netizens said about the heartwarming story:
"I have read before that before meeting the person destined for you, they coincide in many places, they travel together without knowing each other yet!"
"Oh, I'm starting to believe in that 'at some point in your life you already met the love of your life'."
