Call me crazy, but the 2 people who climbed the Empire State Building for a proposal (and are sitting in jail right now) have me believing in love.
Because what do you mean in a world of 8 billion people, they somehow found the one person who's the exact same kind of quirky and insane.
Lowkey, kinda romantic.
