Today on Spicy Board: True Love Does Exist--Man Who Still Eats Out with His Late Wife five years after her death

This is a heartwarming story to read, which would reassure all heartbroken lovers and all those who have lost faith in love, that true love surely still exist. 

The picture above is an elderly man eating out with a photo of his late wife who died five years ago at In-N-Out Burger in Fremont, California. This photo has been retweeted over 8,000 times since Madina Bashizadah captured the amazing moment and tweeted it.

According to Madina, she noticed the man seated at a nearby table, eating his meal while staring at a framed photograph of a woman in front of him; which she interpreted  must be his deceased wife. This moved her into tears and she couldn’t bring herself to approach him.

• “When I saw him, I got very emotional and started tearing up,” she later said. “My best friend wanted me to talk to him but I couldn’t without breaking down.” Other diners at the restaurant, however, did pluck up the courage to speak to the old man and ask him about the photo. He confirmed that the woman was indeed his wife who had passed away five years ago, and he seemed excited to talk about her and share their beautiful love story .

As the old man told the story of their endless love to all concerned people around him. He first met his wife when they were only 17 years old. But was separated for 10 years by war, but he never stopped searching for her. One day as he was telling his barber about her, the barber calls his daughter and it ended up being her. They were married instantly and it lasted 55 years before she passed away. Till date, he takes her photo everywhere.

• “I didn’t think anything like that would ever happen. So when I saw this, it was such a beautiful moment I was like ‘aw, I’m gonna tweet this’. Not to be cheesy, but it made me want that kinda love. Goes to show you true love does exist and I would love for everyone to know!” Madina added.

Especially strangers. You may think that you will brighten their day, but you may be surprised that they can actually brighten yours.”
