A tweet changed everything for Kevin De Bruyne
“It started with a tweet. I only had a few thousand followers at the time, because I was still on loan at Werder Bremen. So I tweeted something about a match or whatever, and this pretty girl favorited it. I was single at the time, and my friend noticed it. So he said, “She looks like a nice girl, no? You should send her a message,” he said.
“And I literally said to him, “No, no, no. Come on. People don’t like me. They don’t get me. She won’t respond.”
"So he grabbed my phone and started tapping out a message. He showed me the phone and said, “Come on, can I hit send?”
"I was probably on the floor, cringing, but for some reason I said, “O.K. fine, send it.”
"Says it all, no? I’m supposed to be this big footballer, and I didn’t even have the heart to slide into my future wife’s DMs! I didn’t dare!
