Well, then, why aren't you in the Bar?

BluRmGrl · 06-16-2005, 12:48 PM

Mr. Blu & I worked in a grocery store near our homes. He was smitten with me from the start (no bragging!!

He tells everyone that himself!), but he wasn't "beau" material in my eyes... Being 17 & full of piss & vinegar, he was a bit of a rough-neck.

Anyway, we worked together for a year & got to be really good friends, although I turned him down every time he asked me out - which was about once a week!
The irony of our story is that when we did finally have our first date, it's because someone who I'd already agreed to go out with started rumors that we'd had this long, secret relationship already & were just now coming out about it!

I found out about it the morning of our scheduled date, & it pissed me off so much that I called him up, gave him a lame excuse & cancelled on him. Mr. Blu & I both finished work that evening at the same time & since my plans had been changed and I knew we were both hungry, I asked him if he wanted to go get some dinner. He literally JUMPED at the chance!

Dinner was such a surprise! He was charming, polite, funny, interesting, cute - just the total package and sooo different from the tough guy image that he portrayed to everyone.

Sixteen & 1/2 years later, we're still enjoying each other's company.

(And I, too, love this thread!!

)

Blu! Thats so sweet!
Its great to find just what you want right under your nose
Tim told me he loved me and wanted to marry me when I still had a boyfriend, and I had never even seen Tim in person yet!
Little did I know I would be accepting his marriage proposal in baggage claim at dulles airport months later

It was when I finally ventured from PLEBA that I had all the luck, but you can definitely maintain allegiance to PLEBA and shop around for a bono alternative

Thanks.
You know, I've often thought about "what if..."? What if I'd never ask him to go get that pizza? What if I'd just gone home & hidden in my room? What if I'd continued to be such a snob about it & refused to give the guy a chance?

I'd have missed the love of life and I'm positive no one else in the WORLD would worship me the way he does.

Even on the days we want to kill each other - and those do happen! - it's only because we still feel so strongly about each other. If we weren't as much in love now as "back when", then we wouldn't really care what the other one did.

And I am sooooo excited for you & Tim!!!

Sounds like you two have certainly found "The One".

u2bonogirl · 06-16-2005, 01:08 PM

I have a lot of what ifs myself

It seems that my entire life lined up to allow for this relationship.
And to think that I could have given him up to keep my boyfriend!

BluRmGrl that is so cute! I really love that story.

I wish I could stick up for my kind - but I'm still stuck in middle school (at least on here

)

Speaking of middle school - have we ever toasted the guy who invented girls body suits

8th grade was the best......

I didn't have those in 8th grade, but from the sound of your reaction it's a good thing for me.
