Lonely 25 y/o. My good ole superior liked me at work and said he knew someone that fit my "religious and political" profile. BUT... She wanted a picture of me first, and all I had was a "Sam's card photo id". I sent it and she left word to start a conversation, which I did via telephone... She agreed to meet me for a date, her mom actually drove her to the meeting place (local quik-mart) to meet (she didn't want me to know her home in case I was a nut or something). Well we had great first date/movie and things looked good for a second date. We set a second date time...
Called second date and she said "nope"... Her voice was basically gone and she said she was sick. Well I figured this was just a cop-out, but I wasn't giving up. I asked my mom what was up, and I explained that I really like this sweet little thing, Mom said "make her a fruit basket". Well, I did, and took probable the largest fruit basket in history to her. She was actually surprised and invited me in to meet her sister. Then she got to feeling better, we went on a second great date. Then a third...
1 year later married.
13 years later still happily married and.... I still take occasional advice from Mom cause she tends to know more than I originally gave her credit for.
