Preschool Sweethearts Reunited By Online Dating Marry – 30 Years After Their Childhood Crushes!

This is the kind of feel-good, you-will-eventually-find-your-happy-ever-after story, I needed to hear right now!

Two childhood sweethearts have married after being reunited by online dating.

30 years ago Justin Pounders and Amy Giberson had crushes on each other at their Florida preschool. 

The cuties stood next to each other as they posed for a class picture.

They lovebirds tied the knot in St Petersburg, Florida after two years of dating.

The happily married couple matched on a dating website in 2014.

A month into their relationship, Justin told Amy that he used to have a crush on a girl with the same name back in preschool. But Amy didn’t think much of it.

Then one day Amy pointed out a small scar above Justin’s eye. He told her her he got it falling off the monkey bars at St Petersburg’s Good Ol’ Sunshine preschool.

It suddenly clicked – the two had met before.

Amy and Justin’s moms confirmed that the two attended Good Ol’ Sunshine at the same time.

Justin’s mother uncovered more evidence of the childhood bond when she found a preschool picture. 

To their amazement Amy was sitting next to Justin in their class picture. 

‘I’m his Amy. I am the luckiest woman in the world to be loved by this man,’ Amy wrote on her wedding website, on which she recounted their unlikely romance.

‘His love has brought my heart and life so much happiness, LOVE, laughter and peace. I’ve never known a peace like this until I met this man. 

The former owner of their preschool, teacher Diane Twar, still remembered their childhood crush.

‘They had a blast with each other,’ Twar told People last year. ‘It was a quiet, bashful romance. They liked each other from afar, it was a young love, like a sweet crush, you know?

‘They insisted on sitting next to each other in our school picture.’

Justin and Amy’s story soon went viral, which led to the couple appearing on on ABC’s The View. 

Justin took the opportunity to propose live on the show. 

The program aired a message from their old preschool, with children holding signs reading: ‘Amy, will you marry me?’

Amy tearfully accepted Justin’s proposal and last week the two became husband and wife.

They have since jetted off to Antigua on their honeymoon, before heading to St Lucia. 

‘Now, I get to spend the rest of my life right next to him and I wouldn’t want it any other way,’ Amy wrote on her website.

‘I don’t know how or why, but one day, I woke up and my life was suddenly a fairy tale.’
