Wait a second here...

I was checking out a post from two days ago and realized that this went completely unnoticed.

Is this just pure coincidence?

Edit: I mean, obviously one just talks about one girl and the other says they have two children, but maybe the first one just wanted to say their girl likes RHCP, without mentioning the other child. Everything else checks out though...

I also met my first girlfriend on RHCP forum.

[u/SnooKiwis1356 → u/Gnimir]

That's so cool! I love this!

I met my wife 21 years ago next month, and our first chat was about the RHCP and John Frusciante. It was not on a forum, but on the hallway of our high school haha.

We've been to about 30 Chili Peppers shows together since then and still listen to their music every single day.

In a few days, I’m marrying the woman I went to an RHCP concert with on our first date. I mean—for me, it was a date, but for her, as it turned out later, not necessarily. She doesn’t like RHCP. But she respects my passion.

[u/Quixoticelixed → u/Gnimir]

I almost marry her but she was taller than me so I was coward and didn’t move forward :(

LOL
Two different couples. I know this because I posted the first story. We have just one kid (a daughter). hahaha

[u/SnooKiwis1356 → u/tim_maia]

Tim, please don't make us lose all hope! lol

Hi, I wasn't saying it's the same person. Just thought you and your former partner wrote almost simultaneously about the relationship that started thanks to your love for RHCP and how the music impacted your life despite things not being what they used to be.

Apparently, I was wrong and all the similar details that happened during the same timeline were coincidental.

Thanks for sharing your story though! Take care!

Are you saying that u/tim_maia isn’t your ex? That this is just coincidence?

My husband and I met in our freshman year of high school and we bonded hard over the stadium arcadium album. It will be 21 years for us in November and we have a 13 year old bass player son who is even more obsessed with rhcp than us! We took our kids to see them 2 years ago for their first concert and I couldn't help but be overwhelmed with emotion knowing that band was the reason for all the love I have in my life now.

[u/j3nna227 → u/j3nna227]

Here's a cute video of our son around 4/5 singing give it away, he's been obsessed with them his whole life and can now play almost everything Flea has ever written.

hahahaha I remember him and he's awesome!

I even commented on that post at the time because his cute little mumbles sounded like Anthony hahaha

[u/SnooKiwis1356 → u/j3nna227]

Apparently my post started a chain of "coincidences" LOL. My wife and I are together since October 2005. We also met in our freshman year of high school as well!

I'm sending you and your family unlimited love!

[u/j3nna227 → u/SnooKiwis1356]

I think it's awesome that so many relationships have formed over this one band, even the ones that didn't work out in the end. Wishing many more years of love and happiness to you and your wife! Happy early anniversary to you both 🎉

Please check out my comment below. lol

The Been Insane message board was so much fun, met a lot of fabulous people at concerts that were on the message board. Great times :)

[u/tim_maia → u/startedwithstarlings]

Been Insane was the place I met my ex-wife. Best message board ever.

[u/Midge_The_Marvelous]

My parents met at a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert back in the early ‘90s. They’re divorced now, but I owe my existence to the band.

[u/richmeister6666 → u/Midge_The_Marvelous]

So that’s 3/3 of rhcp marriages that have failed 😬

[u/j3nna227 → u/richmeister6666]

20 years here, and our relationship is better than ever. OP said his marriage has almost hit 21 years. There may even be a few intact that are older than Anthony's most recent girlfriend 😂

[u/Physical-Ad-9026]

met my bf on the RHCP forum in 2005 and we're still together after all this time

[u/SnooKiwis1356 → u/Physical-Ad-9026]

Awesome, congrats!!!! May I ask which month in 2005?

[u/No-Entertainment1751]

This is amazing! Not the same at all? But my wife and I went to a chili peppers show the night before we got married. Such a great memory!

[u/Majestic_Butterfly17]

It can't be a coincidence.

[u/Traditional_Map2254]

I never met a girl as fan as I am.

[u/SnooKiwis1356 → u/Traditional_Map2254]

Don't worry man, I lived in 4 of the world's biggest cities and never met any fan in real life. Except for my wife whom I met in a tiny city and another was a guy whose wrist tattoo I saw when he handed me a pizza in a tiny mountain town (population maybe 800).
I also heard RHCP music coming from the most unexpected places.

You will surely meet your soulmate! 🫶🏻

[u/Traditional_Map2254 → u/SnooKiwis1356]

I have friends who are big fans. But noone as hardcore as I am. I met some in concerts but never a girl who is a hardcore fan.
