I think that for all the people you know, all the things that you do, the way our brains are wired to see relationships between things it would be amazing if there were none.
So, yes, they do happen.
Get a dice. roll it 20 times an record the numbers.
The probability of getting that sequence is 1 in 6^20
or 1 in 3,656,158,440,062,976.
What a coincidence that you just happened to hit that sequence.

Anytime multiple outcomes are in play, so are coincidences

Too many people equate correlation with causation, which those who have taken introductory logic, philosophy, or statistics ought to know better than to do.
Coincidences are to be expected according to the Law of Large Numbers, with no mystical explanation necessary.

I think our thoughts prior to events and our interpretation of things -- is what ultimately guides us. If you think it is a coincidence - then that is all it is... but if you feel it is somehow a sign to you -- then pay attention... because it is.

I don't think there are any! If you have Jesus there are none. The Bible says ALL things (this means good & bad) work together for good for those who know Christ.

I call them Godincidences because I believe they are all answers from God.
