Love Signs

About 16 years ago, I met a wonderful girl. We hit it off and I realized that it had the potential to go somewhere. Back then she was into star signs and stuff and the first gift I gave her was Linda Goodman’s ‘Love Signs’ with some cheesy lines and my name written on it.

There was this dude (with a bad rep) who went to college with her and suddenly decided that he liked her too. I am not a big guy. Around 5’7” in heels. But this guy was much bigger and heftier than me. He saw the book at her place, found out more about me and decided to pay me a visit and have a ‘word’ with me. The ridiculous part was that he came to see me at my college with a local goon in tow.

Among other things, he told me that he liked the girl in question and asked me to make myself scarce. I am not an aggressive chap. More of a nerd than anything else. But that day, I asked him to fuck off and told him that the only person who could stop me from seeing that girl was the girl herself. Fortunately for me, this happened in a university setting and I walked away unscathed.

I dated that girl for seven years (almost all of it long-distance), got married to her, had sexy times and now have two beautiful little ones to show for it.
