Our love story

2.07.2012

Photobucket

A few of ya'll have asked me about my love story, i.e., how we met, fell in love, and all the romantical, enchanting fairy-tale like things that happened along the way. 

And at that point, I usually turn around to see who is standing behind me that they are talking to. 

Because mushy gooshy frosting on top sweetness? So not me. I only get mushy when recalling that one winter I spent snowboarding my college education away and many a good times was had, the best one involving a shower floor, a pair of scissors, trimming a little from the nether region (not mine!) and one unsuspecting roommate. 

God those were good times. 

Anyway.

Basically, our love story goes something like this:

After him asking over and over to take me out, I finally said "geez, alright already!" and we met at a local restaurant. I brought my girlfriend with me for moral support (because that's what you do on first dates, I presume) and the three of us proceeded to get pretty tippled on red wine and tequila shots (something else I am sure you do on a first date). Somehow, we all made it back to his house (by way of a cab, simmer down folks) .

It was the first time I had ever been at his house, obviously. The three of us were just sitting in the living room, chatting away, when I said I had to use the bathroom. While I was away doing my bizz, my best girlfriend jumped at her chance and started telling my now husband that she was a much better match for him, and that she had liked him for some time now and he would be much more suited to ride off into the sunset with her. 

Hooker.

Anyway, some time had passed since I went to use the lavatory, so Rob went looking for me. 

You'll never guess where he found me.

Without being too graphic, let's just say that it involves passing out face down, a few clothing items misplaced, a bed, a white down comforter, and a lot of red wine regurgitated. 

And then we lived happily ever after.

Then end.

    That song by The Fray "You found me" has special meaning....

    "Lying on the floor." My husband thinks its hilarious.

    ReplyDelete
  16. This kind of reminds me of my husband and I's love story... or at least first few dates story. And that time my big sister in my sorority told my man "you shouldn't date her, she's a big slut" because SHE liked him. I mean, if it were true, what can you do... But it wasn't. Gotta love good friends, huh?

    ReplyDelete
  17. there has to be more to this...when did you start to "like" him back? were you furious with your friend? what were his first impressions of you? how did you meet for him to ask you out? i want more details!

  28. i need wedding pics.

  29. I know that my eventual love story is going to go a little something like yours.

    For example, the second time Lucifer and I hung out, he invited me over to his place to hang out. So I walked in and sat down. He's like did you want something to drink? I was like um, already got it and I whipped out a bottle of wine from my purse. From that moment he said he knew I was the one for him. Needless to say my man better be as big of a lush as me or shit's not going to work.

    Can't wait to actually hang out with you 2! I already love your family and haven't even met them IRL.

    Toddles.

  40. *dramatic gasp!*

    That's not it. Please--pretty please--continue!

    I was super excited to read this (and it was fantastic), because marrying a divorced, much older man, is SO much more interesting than WhatsHisName... Obviously, because I did it too.

    It's pretty apparent why he picked you, though. I'm proud of him. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  41. This is probably the best love story I've ever read, not even kidding.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I met my fiance blacked out at a bar. Like I don't remember it at all. He didn't see it, but I threw up in my bra that night. Glad I'm not the only one who found true love this way :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. Hahaha! Beautiful story! One you will always cherish and tell your great grandchildren about!

    ReplyDelete
  44. LOL! I knew it was going to be good.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I was just going to ask to hear this story yesterday. It's better than I could have imagined.

    I've puked red wine in front of a guy or two (three) and none of them became my husband. What's the trick? Was it merlot? Must have been. I was drinking pinot noir.

    ReplyDelete
