    My MOTHER *fooled* me into introducing me to him- I was NOT the *least* bit interested in her matchmaking skills either ( she did a LOUSY job @ finding anyone for herself so I certainly didn't want her picking out a mate for ME-haha)

    in fact, he was her *favorite* bartender- yeah, THAT *really* IMPRESSED me ya know.....

    She *conned* me into going out to dinner with her on Mother's Day- which, that year coincided with my 19th birthday.
    I met him that night- he was drunk- with his fiancee- and was flirting with me.
    None of these things endeared me to him AT ALL...in fact, I was thoroughly convinced he was a total jerk.

    However, it *just so happened* that I ended up getting a job there a month later- working in the kitchen during college-
    and we spent a LOT of time together, started dating, and fell in love and ran off and got married.
    That was 31 yrs ago.........and it's STILL amusing to me how it all began.

    Moral of the story: Ignore FIRST IMPRESSIONS. We're all jerks on any given day. It might have been an *off day* for them.

    ~ It was a dark stormy night ... as I approached the corner of 5th Street there was this object moving slowly towards me ... I could barely make out what it was in all the rain ... as it got closer I was able to make out what appears to be a man with an umbrella ... How could I not run towards a man with an umbrella in a dark alley ????

    Ok ok ... That wasn't how I met my Valentine ... but it sounded pretty damn intriguing, eh ? :wink:

    I met my Valentine right ......

    At a bar - we have been together for 15 years. I met his best friend first and we were only friends. He introduced us. Less than a year later he passed in an accident. I am so thankful for the time I had with our friend and that I walked into that bar.

    Church. That was the summer of '86 before computers when you had to meet people the old-fashioned way. Started dating in November, engaged in December and married the following June. 25 years later, he still makes my heart flutter!

    Should have said before the internet became a household thing. Computers were around 25 years ago. LOL!
