“Thank God we found each other before dating apps, because I wouldn't have a chance,” he said. “This is not just lip service. I really, really do think we would have ended up together, because in large part, that's how our relationship started — with a lot of very, very long telephone conversations back in 2006 and those kinds of questions: ‘Where do you see yourself in 10 years? What are your dreams? What do you want from your life? What do you want from a relationship?’ ”
As Vanessa added that they also have “the same sense of humor," Nick agreed, stating, "I think we would have gravitated to each other."
"I mean, look. Obviously I knew she was gorgeous, I'm not gonna pretend I didn't know what she looked like, but I do think that in the pods, we would have found each other, because our hearts are meant to be together. It would have worked out," he added.
