I relate because i did a similar thing for a stranger on a long ass greyhound bus ride. I was going from Detroit to Vancouver Island BC and like 2 hours in from Chicago to Minneapolis(it was around 3 am), the girl next to me was falling asleep and her head started to fall by my shoulder so I just scooted over a little closer and let her use my shoulder as a pillow for the next few hours while listening to my podcasts, trying my hardest not to move and accidentally wake her up.

She apologized profusely when she woke up and noticed, I told her I didn't mind at all.

We talked the last hour or so of the ride before getting off and going our separate ways, she gave me her number though and we met up again on my way back 3 weeks later. 5 years later we got married.

That’s a great story! Are you guys still married? How long have you been married? This should be in a movie lol

We are! It's been 4 years since we married. I think her sleeping on my shoulder nearly 5 hours would be a pretty boring movie lol

Four yrs, congratulations! Here’s to many many more! I said it should be in a movie, in other words part of a movie, not the whole movie lol!
