What was said

"I couldn't stop thinking about him. And I thought about posting one of the Craigslist missed connections ads. And I get to the second page, one page and third one down. I remember exactly the placement. And it said, 'Saw you outside of Walgreens, Berkeley.' He placed it just an hour before I looked. So we were looking for each other."

Colman Domingo disclosed he met his husband of 21 years through a Craigslist missed connections ad after they crossed paths outside a Walgreens in Berkeley. Both men independently posted ads seeking each other within hours, leading to their first date three days after their initial encounter where Domingo immediately declared his love.
