I went out with him on a blind date as a favor to a fellow student nurse. Her boyfriend's car was in the shop and my hubby had the car, but no date. It took my roomie and several other fellow students 3 days to talk me into going on that date. I finally said I would go but was not happy about it and was prepared to spend an awful evening. That was 44 years ago and we have been married for 43 wonderful years. I am so glad my friends were so insistent.
