It’s a tweet love story, as man meets and proposes to woman on Twitter

Sumita Dalmia replied the next day asking him if he still had that extra ticket

@apatel120 Do you still have an extra ticket to Jazoo? I’d love to go if you still have it! You don’t by any chance have two do you? :)

Tweets turned into Direct Messages (DM) and DMs to text messages and phone calls. Meeting was inevitable, and thus followed the love story.

Patel decided to take the leap and propose Dalmia in the most romantic way possible on December 20, 2015. He decided to put her on a treasure hunt giving her clues to finally find him. She was treated with a horse carriage ride, taken to a hotel, was asked to change into another dress that was waiting for her and then headed to the hotel’s helipad. He even live tweeted all his clues with the hashtag #SumitaFindAnuj.

Eating pizza & sitting by this lake are memories we have shared. You’re on a hunt to find me now, come soon, & be prepared. #SumitaFindAnuj

Flashback to 8/22/14, which was a special night. Go to the venue we were at before, when our home team put up a good fight. #SumitaFindAnuj

This tweet on 9/13/13 began our journey which started it all. Visit the location of the event which takes place in the fall. #SumitaFindAnuj

36 Andrew Young International Blvd NE is the address for your next stop. Go quickly now, you’re getting close, “chop-chop!” #SumitaFindAnuj

Instead of a traditional car ride, why not try something new? Sit back, relax, & enjoy the ride as your driver takes you to the next clue.

Change into this dress & take the elevator all the way up. To me you are very near; I’m very excited you’re almost here. #SumitaFindAnuj

And there he was waiting for her with his final ‘tweet’ asking: “Will you marry me?”

And guess what, she said ‘Yes’.

They plan to incorporate Twitter in their wedding celebrations as well and have even decided the hashtag for the big day: #Tweethearts2016, they told Mashable.

Well, after the Elizabeth Gallaghar affair ended in naught in 2014 (a man had posted on Reddit, inviting any woman by the name of his ex-girlfriend to go on a world trip with him, but despite good vibes from across the world, the two did not hit it off at all), this story sure gives some hope to romancers of the Digital Age.

Serendipity 2.0, you think?
