Bad for you specifically or personally. Did you have to do something to leverage it or did it judt naturally unfold to an optimal outcome?

    Followed girl to college (was madly in love and pretty dumb). Girl broke up with me. Wouldn’t have gone to a top tier grad school if not for the research I did at that college. Wouldn’t have met my wife in grad school. Wouldn’t have been able to leverage that education to get a great job. Wouldn’t have my life if not for that chick. Crazy to think about. “A butterfly flaps its wings” type shit.

      Somewhat same. Followed a girl I had a crush on to a local school. Met my wife during my last semester, and she’s been my best friend ever since.

      And I never even dated the girl I had a crush on…
