this sort of thing happens all the time. Xavier calls it "Zen mail". :)

It goes one further for me - there are times I get the sudden urge to call or write to someone and am somewhere i *can't* only to turn a corner and find them in front of me. Happens *all* the time.

I don't think I ever believed it was just incidentally synchronistic. It's just always been how things *are*. When this is normal from the start, it's hard to see it as being anything else.

I have, on two occasions that I can remember, picked up the phone and found someone on the other end rather than getting a dial tone. And I have, on several occasions, left voicemail as someone was leaving voicemail for me. Life in the digital age, I guess.

Similar to the other replies; I've gone to pick up my cell phone (no land line for years now), and a text or call comes through from that person - but I will say that on some of those occasions we were expected to get in touch at some point in the day, not at any set time, though. I have not made a tally, several times a month, I'd say ( ... )

Oh yes. Don't know how often, but enough to make me go Hmmmm.

I don't recall it happening to me.

And I'd wager you'll mostly get replies from people it *has* happened to. Sampling is hard.
