So yesterday was Friday the 13th and my 15th wedding anniversary. I’d seen someone do anniversary tweets before (cannot remember still who it was, so if you do please leave a comment). I thought this was a good idea to surprise my husband. Only problem was he’s not on Twitter so I had to post a summary on Facebook. I wasn’t sure how it would go down, as it was PDA (Public Display of Affection). But I think he’s enjoying the attention.
Using Buffer, I scheduled 15 tweets to come out every hour beginning at 7 am. I used the hashtag #OurLoveStory.
When we met, you were in love with someone else, and so was I. Who knew there would be more? #OurLoveStory 1/15

You were new. I showed you around the hospital. I didn’t know then, but I’d never done that before for anyone else. #OurLoveStory 2/15

I didn’t know it then but you would move your hospital duties to coincide with mine. Did you know then? #OurLoveStory 3/15

You hang around when I was on triage. You intubated my patients when I couldn’t. Thought you did same for everyone else. #OurLoveStory 4/15

After duties, our team of three would go out for for brunch. Later, only you and I would go. We didn’t really notice. #OurLoveStory 5/15

You would email me even if we saw each other everyday. I’d email back. We didn’t find that strange. Did we know then? #OurLoveStory 6/15

I broke up with him. You broke up with her. One day we decided to hold hands, to let the world know. #OurLoveStory 7/15

You broke up with me and asked that we remain friends. I said No. I tried to pick up the pieces. #OurLoveStory 8/15
— Iris Thiele Isip Tan (@endocrine_witch) January 13, 2017
I recovered. You couldn’t understand how I could move on without you. You came back for me. #OurLoveStory 9/15
— Iris Thiele Isip Tan (@endocrine_witch) January 13, 2017
Everyone said I shouldn’t take you back. But I did. Singkit and I, always. #OurLoveStory 10/15
— Iris Thiele Isip Tan (@endocrine_witch) January 13, 2017
You asked me to marry you. I said yes. #OurLoveStory

Our wedding invite came in a bottle, the souvenir a compass. You said I was your true North. #OurLoveStory

We sang “I Finally Found Someone” at our reception. I couldn’t reach the high notes. You didn’t mind. #OurLoveStory 13/15
— Iris Thiele Isip Tan (@endocrine_witch) January 13, 2017
Two sons. One that looks like me, and the other is so you. Fifteen years together and counting. #OurLoveStory 14/15
— Iris Thiele Isip Tan (@endocrine_witch) January 13, 2017
I love you Singkit! Always, I. We found each other but didn’t know then. #OurLoveStory continues. 15/15

A couple of my friends were intrigued!
@endocrine_witch feeling romantic

@endocrine_witch very intriguing, and sounds like a good story!

It was a kilig moment for my friends. Kilig, a Filipino word, became part of the Oxford Dictionary just last year. As a noun, it is defined as –
Exhilaration or elation caused by an exciting or romantic experience; an instance of this, a thrill.
I do hope Twitter will still be around on my 20th wedding anniversary. This was fun!
@endocrine_witch That’s part of the fun! 😉
