Many years ago, there was this young woman at work. She was cute, and personable, and I thought she was pretty special (even if she was blonde). Unfortunately, she never saw me as anything more than 'a friend'.

As it turned out, one of the guys I was living with at the time knew her. He had gone to grade school with her older sister and so knew of the family. He knew that I had a sort of 'crush' on the girl but he was curious to see her again so he just happened to stop by work to see me a few times.

Of course he was taken with the young woman also (hey, she's a really nice gal). So, he asked me if I would mind it if he asked her out. Since it was obvious that she had no romantic interest in me I told him I had no objections.

Bottom line; they've been married for over twenty years and have two kids... but he did ask.
