Dating site Match.com Brought back Two Childhood Sweethearts 30 Years After They First Met In Pre-School

Who would ever believe a dating site- Match.com - could bring back two childhood love birds after 30years apart. But it happened!

When Amy Giberson, 34, and Justin Pounders, 34, of St. Petersburg, Florida, met on Match.com, they knew right away that they had something special. Little did they know they were childhood lovers at Pre-School.




The chemistry between them was so intense after their first date was at a restaurant on December 3, 2014.
Two months later, the happy couple got an even better surprise.

Amy told Cosmoplitan.com, "Justin casually mentioned he always liked my name because his first crush was a girl named Amy in preschool. I joked and said 'Well it wasn't me, so I don't want to hear about this Amy.'"
 
 
But, wait a second, it was. About a month later, Justin was rubbing a scar on his forehead and told her the story of how he got it by falling off the monkey bars at Sunshine Pre-K — the same school that she had attended! 

Amy's mother dug threw some old photos and sure enough, there was one of little Amy and Justin sitting right next to each other in Pre-K. 



On November 19, 2015, Justin proposed live on The View, with the help of a bunch of kids at their old pre-school. 




A year later, this past weekend, the childhood sweethearts tied the knot at the Mahaffey Theater in their hometown of St. Petersburg, amid custom-made glasses with palm tree prints in honor of the classroom in which they met over 30 years ago. 

 
"I was hopeful that those love stories Nicholas Sparks wrote about were actually real and that I'd have a great love one day," Amy said. "But I never expected this!" "Never give up on love and love will never give up on you."
