True love spans years of romance, tears, and wrinkles earned together. There may be no better movie than "The Notebook" to show the depth and tribulations a couple goes through to be with each other. Based on the book by Nicholas Sparks, Ally and Noah's love ends when they both pass away at nearly the same time in an assisted living home. It's an absolute tearjerker, similar to a real-life couple shared by TikTok user Deborah Mosely (@deborahmosely1st).

Mosely shared a touching tribute to a couple that was married 64 years ago, which she calls "my favorite love story." The montage begins with a sweet scene of the couple in their later years spending time in their kitchen. She writes in the video that they were married on July 9, 1960. More pictures are shown of the couple embracing one another in a living room and wearing matching t-shirts at a celebration. The couple enjoyed "countless meals" together, as Mosely shared a picture of them dining at their kitchen table.


The video takes a sad turn as their health starts to decline simultaneously. Mosely writes that the husband went to a nursing facility on August 7, 2024. Three days later, the wife was admitted to the hospital for a brain bleed–and 7 days later she joined her husband in the same nursing facility for rehab.


The video documents these days and their sweet reunion at the facility. She is now in a wheelchair, and he sits on a large leather couch as they hold each other's hands facing one another. It cuts to a heart-wrenching scene of the couple lying next to each other in separate beds–which ultimately get pushed together in the next scene so they can once again be close to one another and hold hands.

The last clip in the video shows the two in better in healthier days dancing together, and reveals that the wife passed away on November 18, 2024 at 10:30 p.m. Her husband followed her just hours later on November 19, 2024, at 8 a.m.–less than 10 hours apart. "64 years in marriage, only 10 hours apart in death," she writes in the video. One viewer commented, "'The Notebook' in real life ❤️"–and it really is.

The emotional video deeply touched TikTok viewers. "whew!! The true meaning of 'I can't live a day without you'," one TikToker commented. Another shared, "This is heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time🙏🏾." And another sweetly wrote, "He said if you think you about to leave me here on earth you crazy, I’m coming with you! 🥰."

Many shared that they hope to experience their kind of love at some point in their lives. "The kind of Love we all long for ❤️❤️❤️❤️," one commented. And another wrote, "i pray i get to experience something so pure & beautiful in life🥺❤️." In another moving comment, another shared, "My Lord, what I wouldn’t give to have this kind of love! Thank you for sharing what true love birds look like in human form. 🥰."

One thing is for sure–their love story is one that's made for the movies.

Customer fights back after restaurant refuses to serve free tap water

Some restaurants have adopted automated payment systems that include mandatory gratuities, sparking debates about tipping culture. While many argue that tipping provides essential income for service workers, others believe restaurants should pay fair wages instead. A Reddit user, u/ilikesnark, recently shared a frustrating dining experience that reignited the discussion—this time over a restaurant's refusal to serve tap water.

In their post, titled "Waitress refused to give me water so I removed the 15% auto gratuity," the Redditor described the awkward situation. They had gone out to eat alone and noticed the restaurant’s policy of automatically adding a 15% tip to every bill. While ordering, they requested a glass of tap water, but the waitress instead brought a bottle of water. When the customer asked again for tap water, the waitress insisted they didn’t have any.

Hand dyeing brassy hair

A beautiful hair journey.

Fabulous son helps his mom embrace gray hair after years of dyeing

Have you watched The Substance? I have not (body horror isn't really my thing), but from what I gather, the message at the film's core is profound: Don't resist aging because doing so only invokes chaos and destruction. This sounds nice in theory, but there's so much pressure to age the "right" way in the real world. Older women especially face an impossible task: aging "gracefully" while the world around you treats youth as the ultimate prize.

However, a viral YouTube video is not-so-quietly rewriting society's beauty rules. When celebrity hairstylist Guy Tang's mom decided to embrace her natural gray hair and stop dyeing it dark, she turned to her son for help. The transformation, documented in one of Tang's many videos, took over eight hours to complete—an astounding testament to the power of reclaiming authority and recognizing the beauty of aging.

Why millennials are saying Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince is the greatest TV dad ever

Sitcoms hit a peak in the 80s and 90s—and most Millennials can claim that they 'grew up' with them. A lot of time it was the father figures in these TV shows who proved to be standout characters, but one dad captured Millennials hearts over all the rest: Uncle Phil, played by actor James Avery inFresh Prince of Bel-Air. Uncle Phil was deemed the best sitcom dad by Millennials, and he earned the title from one of his show's most impactful scenes from the episode "Papa's Got a Brand New Excuse" that aired in May 1994.

In it, Will (played by actor Will Smith) spends time with his dad Lou, who has been absent for the past 14 years. Uncle Phil is distrustful of Lou and protective over his nephew Will. So when Lou decides to dip out on a trip he planned with Will, Uncle Phil steps into Will's pain and supports him. It plays out as one of the most emotional scenes Millennials can remember–making Uncle Phil the best TV dad in their eyes.
