Getting stuck in a traffic jam may not sound romantic for many, however a Bengaluru resident has said that his love story blossomed due to a traffic jam.

The Reddit user in his post wrote that he was stuck with his friend, who now happens to be his wife somewhere near Sony World Signal due to the traffic jam because of the Ejipura flyover work. The duo went for dinner nearby and the rest is history. The post however concluded with a jibe at the authorities over the pace of the construction work.

“I’ve mentioned this in another thread, but I met my wife near Sony World Signal. I haven’t put the whole story there, but the gist is that one day I was dropping her home (only knew her as a friend back then) and we got stuck somewhere nearby because of the Ejipura flyover work. We got frustrated and were hungry so we diverted and went and had dinner nearby. Anyway, I’ve dated her for 3 years since then and been married for 2 years, but the 2.5 km flyover is still under construction,” the Reddit post reads.

A Twitter user shared a screenshot of the Reddit post and several netizens reacted to the Bengaluru traffic love story.
