“I was obsessed with this girl, Fiona Gorchinsky. She used to take the bus the opposite way of my actual home and I would get on the bus just to sit next to her for 45 minutes the wrong way. I couldn’t have been more than I don’t know eleven years old. And I was just ready to get off the bus because enough is enough and I’m about to enter like Seattle or something.”

But that’s not the end of the embarrassing incident because Ryan Reynolds thought of giving a slick look to his crush. But as he was getting off the bus, the door closed on his backpack, just like his chances of impressing his crush.

“So I’m starting to get off the bus and I decide to like kind of hit her with like this cool look, one of these like sort of Don Johnson Miami Vice kind of things. I do this move as I’m getting down off the bus and I sort of delay a little too long and the bus doors closed on my backpack, and the bus just starts to leave. I am sort of like banging on the side of the bus, the bus driver finally stops, opens the door, releases my idiot backpack and I could never look at her again.”

Even though this incident was extremely humiliating, Ryan Reynolds has forgotten about the incident as he is living a happy life with his beautiful wife, Blake Lively. He is setting relationship goals with his wife, as they often engage in silly banters on social media that fans love to watch.
