I met my first primary school bully two decades later at the Estonian consulate, who coincidentally also has the name of a local politician.

Well, people have always said that is the type of person to get into politics.
(they are, in fact, two separate people. He became a youth pastor. I also remember he stopped bullying me in year 3 when he found out I could draw dinosaurs pretty well)
Move out west to BC from Ontario. My new doctor had same last name as my boss in Ontario, so I'm like do you know any "blah blah" in ontario? He says yeah that's my dad.
My now partner for more than 15 years both met face to face (online dating worked for me) in a smallish town in Portugal for the first time (she was living in the UK, I in Germany) and on the first evening we both met former clasmates of ours that we hadn't seen for years, it was kinda wild.
Small world ia a scam! When I was on vacation in London my father and I heard the "fact" on the tourist bus that you couldn't be on Picadilly Circus more than 43 minutes or so before meeting someone you know. We sat there for over an hour and didn't see anyone.
But then again, we were at an airfield for a pilot meeting earlier during that vacation. And it turned out that the guy who owned that airfield was stationed in Germany at the same town and at the same time my father lived there as a child.
