Pop culture has proven two absolute truths about romance. First, no gesture has quite the combination of sweet surprise and comfortable familiarity as meeting a significant other at the airport. Second, couples become cuter in their golden years. It's why The Notebook's young Allie and Noah make you sigh, while their elderly counterparts break your heart.
On September 7, these two truths collided when musician Chris GQ Perry posted to his Facebook page a video featuring an old man waiting patiently, flowers in hand, for his other half. She arrives, they hug, and all the celebrity divorces of the summer seem to melt away. Perry captioned the video, "This is true love," and it seems unlikely that anyone could disagree. Within two days, the video has gained more than 800,000 likes. We suspect that number would be even higher if, instead of "like," there were a way to click "awww." (h/t BuzzFeed)
