Sometimes You Just Have to Manifest Michael B. Jordan Into Being Your Boyfriend

Did you ever see something on Twitter and think to yourself, “I think I just found a new hero”? Well, that’s what happened to me when I saw what BeeBabs did.

A story made the rounds this weekend of two old friends finding each other through Twitter. They had met on a summer holiday back in 2006, and all they had was a picture of each other and their names to try to reconnect, and the internet came through.

So, when BeeBabs saw the story, she decided to see if the same thing could work for her, but she may have overestimated the internet’s powers just a bit.

I met this guy on holiday this summer-we had a such a great connection but I changed my number and we lost touch. Twitter do your thing😭🙏🏿❤ pic.twitter.com/rBekHA6TeL

Obviously, that’s Michael B. Jordan and a photoshopped picture, and Twitter called her out on that.

I mean I wish you couldget whoever you want by photoshopping them i to your pic and asking twitter to do ‘their thing’ 🤣I’d make so many different edits of hot people beside me 🤷‍♀️

But BeeBabs didn’t want us to think it was a fake encounter. She wanted us to know the truth.

I don’t know what you’re talking about sorry! This is a real photo! I would appreciate you not questioning the authenticity!

The bit continued on, with Twitter users sending in pictures of Michael B. Jordan’s roles and sharing where they think he might be.

I don’t know where he is now, but he spent some time playing football in Dillon, Texas. Hope it helps… pic.twitter.com/Wj8W82Xfcm

Maybe he’s in a museum with a mysterious girl.

Lissen! Think I snapped a pic of him in a museum once… Might have been with a girl but could be wrong. Will keep you posted! DM me! pic.twitter.com/d9F23NZ024

BeeBabs continued to play along, talking about how this was the man from her summer fling and that she really wanted to connect with him once more. Unfortunately, it became clear that he had quite the amount of ladies claiming that he was theirs. In fact, he and Tessa Thompson seem to be pretty close.

Damn! I really wanted this to workout for you but I saw him at the gym last night with his new girl @TessaThompson_x they seem happy 😒 pic.twitter.com/OcG0vo5lXx

At the end of the day, one thing is clear: We’d all like to will a summer fling with Michael B. Jordan into existence, and if we’ve learned anything from Sylvia Wilson, it’s that there’s no harm in trying.
