In 1996, David Beckham found himself transfixed by the Spice Girls’ “Say You’ll Be There” music video (and honestly, who can blame him?).
He turned to his teammate Gary Neville and, pointing to Victoria (AKA Posh Spice), said: “That one there. That’s the girl I’m going to marry.”

In 1978, Meryl Streep’s beloved partner John Cazale passed away from terminal bone cancer. She was devastated and couldn’t stand the thought of moving back into the apartment the two of them had shared.
Her brother’s friend — Don Gummer — stepped in and said Meryl was welcome to live in his empty apartment while he was away traveling.
Eventually, he came back to his apartment and Meryl never left. The two were married shortly thereafter and have been together ever since.

Literally everything these two do restores our belief in love, but just in case you need a specific story, this one from Dax should do the trick:
“[Kristen] was doing a movie in Alaska and I was shooting Parenthood, and I couldn’t go, and she was going away for a long time. But then my schedule changed and I didn’t tell her, so I got the seat next to her on the airplane and then I sweet-talked the gate representative to let me on the plane early.
So when she went to sit down, I was in her seat reading a newspaper, and she kept going, ‘Excuse me, sir. Excuse me, sir. I think you’re in my seat.’ And then she noticed: ‘Those hands look familiar,’ and then she started bawling when she saw that I was on the flight.”

Six years later, the couple returned to the same spot — and got married there.
This next story is almost too adorable for words.
