Trying to stay positive on this Hump Day by counting down the days until Valentine’s Day! Only 8 to go until a romance writer’s fav day of the year. One of the things I love is hearing how people first got together. In my case, it was rather embarrassing I must admit. Hubby and I had kind of met at a Freshman Orientation mixer that the university was holding so new students could get to know one another. As was typical after such parties, I rushed home to pull out our Freshman yearbook to find out more about “Bob”, the young man I’d just met. Turned out he was a Brooklyn boy who was also in my major and after a few days of class, I ran into him again off and on. But that’s not where it gets embarrassing. When it came time for one of our classes to assign seats in the lecture hall where we had class, I looked him up on the seating chart and saw he was sitting right in front of me. Unfortunately, when Bob sat down it was in the wrong seat and silly me, I was only too quick to tell him! Ugh, I was so not savvy about the whole man/woman thing having been too involved in my studies and other non-romantic type activities. Sigh. But somehow it worked out all right since we’ve been married forever. Today I’m sharing this photo of those two awkward freshman who were dating! LOL
How about you? How did you meet your significant other?
