A Couple Played Matchmaker After Switching Seats On A Plane & It’s An IRL RomCom

On a flight home on Monday, actress Rosey Blair asked a woman to switch seats with her so she could sit with her boyfriend. Blair joked that the woman might end up sitting next to the love of her life in the new seat, and it turned out the woman just might have, turning the plane ride into a real life romcom.

Blair chronicled the entire story on social media, creating the perfect love story that literally would make the best movie ever.

According to Blair’s Twitter account, after the her and her boyfriend’s seatmates swapped places with them, the new seatmates began flirting with each other. Blair wrote that the two were chatting and flirting before the plane even took off.

The potential-couple continued talking even after the plane took off, finding lots of similarities between each other, including being personal trainers, vegetarians and, most importantly, single.

The cutest part? Blaire said the couple kept touching arms. I sense a blossoming romance!

As it became very clear that love was in the air, Blair promised to keep us updated about the romance, even after they got off the plane.

Blair and her boyfriend were excited to watch this relationship blossom, noting that the woman even came back from the bathroom with her hair down, and began asking her potential male suitor fitness questions.

The cozy potential-couple, according to Blair, also shared a cheese plate and showed each other pictures of their families. Sounds like things are getting serious!

Even when free wifi on the plane ran out, Blair knew just how much her followers needed to know how the love story ended, and bought wifi service on the plane to keep us informed about the lovebirds.

The climax of it all? The woman put her head on the guy’s shoulder for a moment, and the pair talked about what they want out of life, marriage and kids included. They also followed each other on Instagram.

After the plane landed, Blair followed the two lovebirds off the plane and saw them walking around together. Blair’s boyfriend also did some sleuthing, and found the couple’s Instagram accounts, and the two were both based in the Dallas area, meaning the two will live happily ever after and have a beautiful fitness-loving family. Or at least we hope that’ll be the case.

Who knew a plane ride could lead you to the love of your life? Hey, Rosey, can you set some of us up now?
