I had fell in lust with a cocktail waitress @ Jubitz Truck Stop in Portland, Or. She give it up & I fell in love with the snatch. 2 months later I was off the road living with her. That didn't last long. I ended up going back on the road & was in Jubitz again one night.
There she was, a big blue eyed girl. I thought she looked amazing & was feeling good enough to go tell her that. Instant connection & I actually asked her to marry me that night. Been married since '94. She's a keeper. She's stuck with me when the divorce rate for paralyzed folks is staggering. This was out at her parents' place on the 4th of July '99. 4 years later I got hurt. ![]()

Church. She was a senior in HS, I was the choir director. We didn't actually start dating until after she graduated, though.

So did she say yes that night, too? Or did you have to ask again later? Or was it just kind of an open invitation from that point on?

We met at a bar. I walked up and said " Hey you wanna get a pizza and ****" she slapped me and then I asked her to marry me. She slapped me again then gave me her number. Six years and two kids later I still haven't got my pizza.

We tried hard to wait until we were married but she became pregnant so we went to Reno & got married one weekend. Several of her family members are from the Turlock, Ca. area so they flew over. I had no one there. All I kept hearing was, "chhkk, chhkk". The family unloaded them after I said "I do". I don't know how they were able to get them on the plane. She lost that baby & we lost 3 more in 8 years of trying before we finally had our daughter in '01. Last edited by rtmike; 06-01-2012 at 02:59 PM.. |

Video dating. It was the pre-internet way to expand your possibilites beyond just the people you meet or know.

I saw one of the most beautiful women and said "if I don't ask her out I'll be asking why". Bought a bag of Skittles and ask if she wanted one. I still watch her walking out of the bathroom getting ready for bed and say "wow".
Life is crazy. |
