TALES OF LOVE

Love is in the air and this month we wanted to show our love by bringing your romantic tales to life on our pages. Here are some of your wild and wonderful love stories that left our hearts fluttering.

Alexandra Novik-Khamis and Ali Khamis

Love story of Alexa and Ali In the realm of art, where creativity knows no bounds, our love story unfolded like a captivating masterpiece. It was at an art event that our paths serendipitously crossed. As I stood there, I noticed a figure in the crowd, his eyes reflecting the same passion that fuelled my artistic soul.
He, a talented professional goalkeeper from Bahrain, and I, a Russian artist, were drawn together by the magnetic pull of art. Our shared love for creativity became the foundation upon which our relationship blossomed. From that moment on, we embarked on a journey where art and love intertwined. Through art, we found a language that transcended any cultural barriers, allowing our love to flourish in the most beautiful and authentic way.
“Our love story is a testament to the power of love’s embrace, bridging the gaps between nations and cultures.”

S and M.. Has it really been 30 years? It just seems like yesterday. He’s a fresher, boring, studious engineer. Me a sassy, classy, university fresher with head and hair in the air. Our fathers were best friends, so when M had his first posting in an oil company in our hometown, my father was appointed his guardian and he was always at ours for home cooked meals.
Always in his blue blazer. We were poles apart – just like Bollywood – Hollywood, jazz music – Indian classical music, hardcore vegetarian – hardcore non-vegetarian. That’s right, we really didn’t bond on anything at all. But, as they say, opposites attract and these two opposites did attract and how!
“The beautiful promises we made to each other on the first day of our wedding manifested true, leading to a beautiful life beyond dreams”.

Kássia Tarsis Retagi and João Lucas Roque

It’s honestly the most unconventional ‘meet cute’! We met during the peak of COVID (very unromantic) and I (Tarsis) was the one who slid into his DMs and started the whole thing. I came across his page on TikTok, loved his content (he did art content, like drawing, etc) and decided to follow him on Instagram.
He ended up following me back and we started, slowly but surely, interacting with one another, talking more and more until we finally exchanged numbers. We eventually met in person for a coffee, a supposedly short encounter that ended up being hours. I can still remember what he was wearing – a grey button-down shirt and jeans.
“This happened in 2020, we’re now married, living in Bahrain and expecting our first baby. I am the happiest I’ve ever been and I’m pretty sure he is too ”
