When This Girl Asked Out A Barista, A Customer Secretly Live Tweeted Their Conversation

Sometimes something happens in life that’s so unbelievable that it may as well be fiction. Take this love story for example. Twitter user @notjerryclayton was sitting in a cafe in Brooklyn, NY, just minding his own business recently, when the two baristas behind the counter decided to choose that very moment to declare their secret love for each other. Aware that what was unfolding right in front of him was pretty darned special, Jerry decided to live tweet the entire encounter as it happened. See below for the full story.

I hope he didn't reveal which coffee shop he visited. The couple don't want a swarm of people coming to their shop and whisper, "Look! They must be the couple mentioned on Twitter!"

You must not have a lot of joy in your life. Most people, when they experience joy like our lovebirds did, want to share that feeling with the world. Joy is meant to be shared. I hope someone shares some with you soon.
