Re: Coincidences.
Back in early 1996 I met this nice young lady in an out of the way bar surrounded by cemeteries in Colma Ca. We became acquaintances and played pool over the weekends for a few months but nothing more than that. I stopped going to that bar and all connections with that nice young lady stopped.
Then, in 1999, I visited the east coast with a return connection in Chicago at O'Hare. I was a smoker and went through the underground, neon lit, tunnel between terminals to have a smoke out front. On my way back I ran into the same nice young lady in the tunnel. She was on her way to Italy. I haven't seen nor heard from her since even though I still occasionally go to that bar.
So, you tell me. What are the odds of meeting someone in an airport you've been to a total of 6 times in over ~15 years, that you met in an out of the way bar surrounded by dead people, that you haven't seen in years, in an airport thousands of miles away, that has tens of thousands of people going through it every day and that you haven't seen since? Astronomical right? But it happened. While I was surprised that we saw each other and talked for a few minutes, it didn't cross my mind at the time at how unlikely the chances were that we would ever meet in those circumstances.
Unlikely doesn't mean unpossible.
