1. A memorable date.
We stopped at his work to pick up his paycheck so that he could afford to take me on the date.
We drove 30 minutes into Seattle to watch a show.
His radio didn’t work.
He asked me what my favorite color was.
I was grateful for the show to give us something to talk about.
But the show was sold out.
We drove 30 minutes back out of Seattle.
He asked me if I wanted to grab dinner.
He took me to Denny’s.
He challenged me to make a tent out of my silverware.
He took me home.
He pulled into my driveway and turned his lights off.
I had my passenger side door open before the car was fully stopped.
“THANK YOU! HAVE A GREAT NIGHT!” I yelled while sprinting back into the house.
If you want a kiss after the most awkward date night ever, you better make it Olive Garden.

That’s a good one. So you spent one hour total in a car with no radio, half an hour at Denny’s with all the drunks building a tent with your silverware, and got out of the car before he could get you to do anything else. Hope there was something good on TV…

Oh! That wasn’t the way I thought it was going to go. I thought it was going to be one of those comedy-of-error dates that went so bad it ended up bringing you both together and you’d end with, “and that’s how I met my husband”. But no. I love the door open, sprinting for the house end to the date. I can totally relate. :)
