Sitting in a local tavern after a slo-pitch game with some team mates downing a couple of cold ones after our victorious win, in walks my brother with one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen in my life. She was wearing skimpy black shorts and a hot pink top. They proceed to sit up at the bar when one of my buddies asks, “Who’s that gall with your brother?” I reply, “I don’t know but I think I’m gonna marry her.” After they finish their drink they stop by our table and he introduces her as the sister of his current girl friend. They mention that her sister (his girl friend) had to work early the next morning and didn’t want to go out, so the two of them decided to go with out her. My brother says they’re headed down to the local night club for some dancing and a couple of drinks. After they leave, I down my last beer, rush home to hit the shower and head to said night club. As my brother spent most of his time out on the dance floor with anyone (or thing) that would dance with him, this lovely lady & I spent the entire night talking across the table to one another. Finally as the night grew on I leaned across the table and kissed her. The rest as they say is history, we just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary last April 23rd, and this July 13th will be our 15th year together. Not a day goes by that I don’t consider myself the luckiest guy on the face of the planet!

That's cool.
I had just gotten out of the USCG. I was in a crummy little apartment, but met some decent people to party with, but not lifelong friend types. There was this girl who lived there too, but didn't spend much time there. She had the most incredible eyes you could imagine, as well as many other very appealing physical attributes. I told the guys that I was going to marry her. They said NEVER. It was kind of understandable, because the only time she had ever seen me I was covered head to toe in mud from my well drilling job. I would let my pants dry out on the rail, and they would hold shape from being so muddy. I said Never say never!
That friday night, after I had a few beers, she came back to her apartment in the same complex. I worked up the courage to ask her out, we talked for hours & hours. Last Thursday was our 15th wedding anniversary.
Never say never!
