That would be pretty scary, you don't know where the string leads so your/her "fated person" can be behind every corner, behind every door, waiting on every train station, in every grocery store, etc.
"It is said that if you have matching items then the red string of fate will not be connected"
So they not connected thats what it implies probly. Also he ties that bear with his own string to have some fate on her? I dont get that one why did he tie that
aight, I'm calling it here. I bet Their strings really are attached they just go all the way around the world so they look like they're in opposite directions.
