Believe in fate?

I have to get some input on this. This has to be one of the craziest things that has ever happened to me. I was at a club the other night, and this guy walks by and looks at me, and i look up at him. Then we both did a double take and looked at each other again, and he says 'hey how are you? i know you from somewhere' and I said I was just thinking the same thing, but we can't figure out from where. I find out that he's in the Coast Guard, and I tell him that I was in the Coast Guard for 4 years, I just got out last June. I'm already thinking, wow out of the whole crowd, I pick out the one Coastie. We get to talking a little bit, and trying to figure out where we know each other from is driving us crazy, we exchange phone #'s and go our separate ways. he calls me up the next day and we decide to go out to dinner, the fact that we know each other from somewhere still driving us crazy, finally he asks me what my last name is, and that does it, he figured out that we had met in a week long Coast Guard School in California. while I was in the Coast Guard, I was stationed in NC the whole time, and when the end of my enlistment was coming up, I was deciding where to go to college, I knew it would be FL because I stayed a FL resident during my enlistment, and my choices were Miami, Cocoa, and St Petersburg, because those are the only ones with veterinary technology programs. I decided that St Pete's looked the best and decided to move here, I had never even visited St Pete before. It was my first time at the club we met at because it's kind of far away. So tell me, what are the chances of this happening?? This to me seems completely crazy, out of the millions of people that live in this country, I meet someone that I met 2 years and 3000 miles away! Is this what fate is??

It sounds like fate to me. Do you like this guy? Does he like you?

I do like him, we went out last night on a date and it was weird cause it didn't feel all awkward or anything, we were really comfortable with each other.. so we'll see where it goes from here

It's fate, serendipity, whatever you want to call it. Life is full of these delicious twists and connections. Enjoy.

we were supposed to have lunch today when he got off duty, and before i had to go to work, now he did say yesterday that he usually works out at about 1:00, but that he'd come hang out with me for a bit. then he called this morning and said 'i dont think im gonna make it for lunch, but give me a call when you're done working tonight'.. what's that? i'll never understand guys.
