You must have taken the last of the good men LOL no seriously that is so very special that he paid for the babysitter and did not run in the other direction upon finding you had small children. That says a lot for this man, he is a keeper and the remark “It should never cost you money for me to have the honor of taking you out”. That says a whole lot about this man and his character. Good for you and him. All I ever get feedback from are the jerks on there so I gave up. But I am very glad for you guys. God Bless.

I attended a trade-show and a colleague introduced me to a publishing industry acquaintance. I was smitten; she thought I was gay. That night I dragged a different colleague– who actually is gay– to a party at which this lovely woman was in attendance. She confessed on one of our early dates that it took her a while to believe that I wasn’t gay, and that my work friend was. We got married a year and a half ago!

The day after I was interrogated by the Greek Secret Police, late in September of 1969, I was sitting at a cafe on the main street of my village, feeling scared and angry. An incredibly handsome young Greek man walked by, leaned toward me, and said, “Would you walk?” We strolled down the street to the harbor and along the quai. We were together a year. Then love stopped being true.

My husband and I met on the pier at Sans Souci (demolished by hurricane Iniki), located at the foot of Diamond Head. He was sitting to my left, staring at me and I was studiously ignoring him when a fish jumped close to the pier. He said, “Did you see that?” I said, “Yes, what was it?”–meaning what type of fish. He responded, “A fish.” I knew then that I had a rocket scientist on my hands. He clinched the deal by telling me his father was a well-known professor at the University of Hawaii–who happened to be Japanese. My husband is a rather tall, blonde, definitely Caucasian male. I am the daughter of another well-known professor at the University and happened to be familiar with the professor in question. My response was a rather tart, “The heck you are.” The rest is history. Never trust the offbeat ones.

Even though I’m a frugalista, I would say that thousand bucks was well worth it!

My brother, Evan, fresh out of Juilliard had just gotten into the LA PHIL as a 20 year old violist. He insisted I come to a concert and meet his friend and colleague, Jerry…not for any reason other than because he was a great guy. I had NO plans to ever get married…in fact, I was planning on moving to Europe for a while as I had 6 months of gigs lined up and meetings with publishers. I was supposed to have picked up my airline ticket that morning, but had a scheduling conflict and was to do it the next day. I had just come from a rehearsal..wearing a black gas coat, boots and after getting a little tipsy at my hair stylist…had neon pink dyed hair at right in the middle of my blonde curls so it would pop on stage under the bright lights. Upon arriving back stage…my brother shouts out…”Yo Bro, dis is my sista”…and I never left…and for that, my grandfather paid him $1000 finders fee!

I met my boyfriend 13 months ago on Facebook. I didn’t know him (and we had no friends in common) but his profile was witty, he liked Sinatra and he had on a great blue shirt….so I “poked” him. We exchanged emails and phone calls for a few weeks and then he drove 90 minutes to take me to dinner. I was smitten the minute I saw him. He had flowers for me, took me to a movie after dinner and then at the end of the evening insisted on paying for my babysitter (I have 3 small children). He said “It should never cost you money for me to have honor of taking you out”. There are over 400 million users on Facebook….you do the math!

My dad was a national radio sales rep. living and working Chicago. My Mom answered his ad for a Secretary. When she arrived she asked “Do you have to be a citizen to have this job?”. My Dad said he didn’t care that she couldn’t type or file and that Englsh was NOT her first language….was (and still is) amazingly beautiful!
