Dear Twitter, Will You Marry Me?

Dear Twitter, Will You Marry Me?

July 19, 2016 // Riot Fest

marry a twitter

Have you ever wanted to tie the knot with a Twitter account?

Although this may seem screwy as all hell, the thought has obviously crossed a few your minds:

I wanna meet and marry the @RiotFest guy so bad

— Sarah Ratcliffe (@sratcliffe97) September 19, 2015

I’m only going to @RiotFest this year to meet the person who runs their Twitter account so I can ask them to marry me 😉

— Dana Marie (@trademymistakes) July 14, 2013

@RiotFest I love you. Marry me pls

— Lety Alvarez (@letyrezzz) July 19, 2016

— Kaitlyn✨ (@_Kaitlynhza) February 19, 2015

I wanna marry them

Now, let’s meet Victoria. Three years ago, she fell head over heels for a Twitter account associated with Waterstones, a bookstore located on Oxford Street in London.

marry twitter

To help Victoria along,  a friend made a bet with her. Victoria had two weeks to win a date with the mystery man behind the Twitter. Unfortunately, her flirty tweets went unnoticed and the two week time limit came and went.

But all was not lost. The two eventually struck up a conversation when the man behind the Twitter, Jonathan O’Brien, tweeted Victoria from his personal account to clear up some confusion with another woman.

Those conversations led to Victoria taking donuts to the Waterstones store, which led to a first date at a cocktail bar, which led to a relationship, and two-and-a-half years later, Jonathan proposed. The rest they say, is history.

Dear reader, I married him #noreally #yeahidunnohoweither pic.twitter.com/OKuosKzdJL

Dreams do come true for some people. Probably not you though. The person behind the Riot Fest Twitter is terrible.
