Re: Favorite Way To Spend A First Date?
I don't even remember what our first official first date was for my husband and me. We knew each other for half a year before we dated. I was dating someone else at the time and wasn't interested. Then I broke up with the mama's boy I was dating and was after someone else and boy, was he good looking. Too bad he was still hung up on his ex-GF. Then I noticed my future husband had gotten a crush on me, but I still wasn't interested beyond being friends. Not sure at what point I changed my mind, probably after we spent a long time talking at the bar we both hung out at. One night I had gotten out of work early and ended up going to the bar alone hoping to run into someone I knew. Ran into a couple girls from high school and my future hubby was there. We talked a lot that night, ended up slow dancing to some Brian Adams song. Then it was bar time and we stood outside without jackets and it was getting a bit chilly. Hubby kissed me in the parking lot and then after about an hour or so we went home (not together lol).
The next day I woke up aching all over, pounding sinus headache, sore throat and dragging my butt, I was so drained. Yep, caught a nasty cold just like that. I had to call in sick to work. Of course, the supervisor accused me of being hungover and even though I felt like crap, she still expected me to wait on tables (I was a waitress back then). I told her I had drank soda all night, but she didn't believe me. I did have to drive my parents' car home that night, so I was being careful. I did finally get out of working. Gawd, I hate being accused of something that isn't true. What if I had called in on a Wed.? Would I get the same reaction from the boss?
My husband and I might have gone to the movie on our first official date where he actually asked me out and we went some place together. Couldn't tell you what movie it was since that was so long ago.
People would ask us for a long time how we met. We both knew it was at the bar we hung out at, but couldn't quite place the exact time we met. Nothing really stood out. My husband had gone to high school with one of my former friends, that is how we started talking in the beginning. We had to think about it for a long time, but eventually came up with Halloween night right before bar time. I was with my 2 friends and the 3 of us had gone as McD's fries, Big Mac and a shake. I was the Big Mac and had a little sign on my lower back that said, "Do you like my buns?" I think my friends and I started talking to future hubby on the way out the door. Maybe he liked my sign lol.
We've been married for 20 years coming this August.
