• Actor Colman Domingo found his husband through Craigslist in 2005, leading to their marriage in 2014
• Colman recalls the unexpected way he first met his husband, Raúl Domingo, outside a Walgreens store in Berkeley, California
• The couple has been together for almost 19 years since their first date spawned from a Craigslist missed connections ad and has a tendency to believe in manifesting wishes and magical moments
Here is what happened:
Colman Domingo, known for his role in “Euphoria,” met his husband, Raúl Domingo, almost two decades ago in a surprising way. He recalled the unexpected way he first met the man who would become his husband in a new interview. It all started in Berkeley, California in 2005, when Colman was minding his own business, going into a Walgreens to buy a facial mask. It was then when he saw Raúl walking out, and the rest is history.
He described the first encounter with Raúl, saying, “I see this guy and we look at each other. I’m like, ‘Oh my God.’ And I’m on the phone and I come outside and we look at each other and he’s talking to this young woman and she seemed to be angry about something.” After meeting Raúl and parting ways, Colman ended up finding himself in Blockbuster. It was days later when he found an ad on Craigslist that described him with his fauxhawk, and he made the connection that this ad had been placed by Raúl looking for him.
That’s when they met up and had their first date, which ended with them spending the night together. Later on, Colman mentioned that he has always been a believer of manifesting his wishes and allowing magic to happen in his life. He also shared that they have been together for almost 19 years.
