Okay...#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#This was back in the day (yes, I'm a hundred) when VCRs had just come out and you could rent them from variety stores. My family didn't have one yet. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#My parents had gone away for the weekend and I had a friend staying over. We were driving around on a Saturday night and decided to go rent a VCR and a movie. Stopped in at this 7-11 and the guy behind the counter (my future spouse) gave us SUCH a hard time about renting this VCR...asked for all kinds of ID and was kind of a jerk. Anyway, my friend and I got home, could NOT figure out how to hook up the VCR so I phoned the store. Future spouse said that he was soon to get off work, and he and a buddy would come over and hook up the VCR for us. They did, and stayed with us to watch the movie. I was actually more attracted to the "buddy" than I was to my hubby. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#He phoned me the next day and we talked on the phone for a couple hours. We just really "clicked". But he was still a jerk LOL!! We dated off and on for a few years after that, until finally one day, after we had been broken up for about 6 months, he phoned me up out of the blue and we got back together. We sorta decided at that point that we didn't want to break up anymore, so we got engaged. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#And the rest, as they say, is history... #ed_op#IMG src="http://forums.equestrianconnection.com/richedit/smileys//grin.gif"#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#So, yeah, kinda unorthodox but I guess it was meant to be!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#MacnRio wrote:#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#OK, how DO you strike up a conversation and turn it into a date in a variety store?
