When I first met my ex found out:
When my parents moved to city they live in now, they were originally going to buy the house next door to him. (Bought a house around the block instead)
We lived one block away from each other for 19 years.
When I was 11 I crashed my bike in his front yard.
The first boy I kissed lived across the street from him.
We went to the same schools and same concerts.
My best friend for 7 years, was the sister of his best friend.
His sister worked in the same building as me (five floors down).
His grandparents last name is a different spelling of my mother's maiden name. (I checked - we are not related).
I worked for a local government entity that he worked for a couple years earlier. (My desk was three feet away from where his was year's earlier).
All that and we only met when a mutual friend and I went to coffee and he tagged along.
