How I met Doug

Doug and I met at a pool hall, Mr. Billiards. Both of us used to go there all the time to unwind and relax before we ever met. I went one night with one of my friends Nat and she introduced me to this hansom man, Doug. I actually had a boyfriend at the time, an emotionally stale man who I was looking to get rid of anyway, but this didn't seem to bother Doug too much. That first night we went back to Nat's house and just talked till 4:00am. I just remember laying on his arm thinking, "Wow, I don't think I have ever connected with someone so fast". He was charming and hansom and he lied to me to get my number... you know you did! He claimed he would be hiring a secretary soon and that he thought he could get me the job. I'm really glad he lied because I would have been to shy to ask for his number.

It was about 3 weeks before I actually dumped my boyfriend (he was having a family crisis so I felt bad dumping him okay?!) and Doug quickly asked me on a date. He picked me up looking so sexy and he had borrowed a very nice car. We went to Outback Steakhouse and I thought, lets see what kinda guy he is... I promptly ordered an appetizer, a salad, a steak all bloody and medium rare and dessert. The sweet guy didn't even blink. The whole time he looked at me and told me I was beautiful. And no, I have never ordered so much on a date since!

Now how great is that for a beginning?
