Stories like this are often reserved for saccharine romantic comedies with unrealistic plots. A beautiful person just happens to encounter another beautiful person at the airport. They have a meet-cute, they part ways, something reconnects them in an unexpected fashion, their lives are changed forever. (Usually someone is wearing flannel and runs a super cute bakery and/or Christmas tree farm.)
But it never actually happens in real life — right?
Well it did for literary agent Emily Forney. En route to Los Angeles on April 26, Forney found herself sitting next to “the most gorgeous man” she had ever seen. He not only had two books with him, he was chowing down on a morning steak burrito, leading Forney to take her story to Twitter to declare she might have found her “soulmate.”
I’m at the airport going to LA and the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen just sat down on the floor next to me and not only has two books in his bag but he’s eating a whole ass steak burrito at 9am. Y’all I think I found my soulmate

From there, she takes us on a Twitter journey about the mystery man that would make Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan melt.
