Jason Momoa's story about meeting his wife Lisa Bonet starts off creepy, then turns super sweet

Jason Momoa's story about meeting Lisa Bonet treads a fine line between adorable and mildly creepy -- but hey, the good news is it has a happy ending.

"Ever since I was like 8 years old and I saw her on the TV, I was like: 'Mommy I want that one'," explains Momoa in the clip above.

"I'm like: 'I'm going to stalk you for the rest of my life and I'm going to get you.'"

Luckily, the story gets a bit less stalker-y when Momoa gets to the part about the night he first met Bonet -- and they bonded in a cafe over their shared love of Guinness.

"We had Guinness and grits and you know, the rest was history," he says.
