Whoa, boy, here goes.
We live in a small town. My wife's dad & my dad worked together in 1965 to get the town a hockey program. There were only about 5 guys on the board.
My brother and her brother were on the same high school hockey team & were partners on defense. My wife & I went to the games as 5 & 7 year olds, our parents knew each other through hockey but didn't do anything together socially.
One of my high school friends dated my wife for almost four years. I dated a girl that my wife worked with. We had a lot of misses. I think back to the times we were both unattached & am thankful that I never asked her out back then, as things would almost surely never have worked out as well as the have now. Neither of us could be happier, and we have two great kids as a result.
