Met someone we know today, haven't seen her for a good few years, so caught up on what had happened over the years. Last time we saw this lady, she was alone, her hubby had gone off with another woman, and left her with two young daughters, to bring up, she really did struggle, financialy and emotionaly. When her children had grown up, one of her daughter said she'd take her Mum away on her first holiday abroad. On the plane, a man who was sitting in the window seat asked her if she would like to sit there, as he had overheard it was her first trip on a plane. For the journey they chatted, both went to the same resort, but didn't see each other. Then on the journey home, they both got the same plane home, again they chatted, and that was that. However, a year later, this lady, decided that she felt 'brave' enough to go on holiday alone, and thought she would go back to the same resort as the year before, as she felt comfortable there, and knew where things were. So she went a month earlier than she did the previous year, and on that flight, was the same man who had given up his window seat for her !!!! They sat next to each other, and bumped into each other a few times on holiday, and again on the way home they sat together on the plane. He asked her that if he rang her, would she go out with him for dinner, she said yes she would, and a month later, he rang her, and they went out. They have been married for 4 years now :))))))))) How bloomin' lovely is that ? So for all you people who are out there who think you will never meet M or /Mrs Right. You just may do. Made our day it did :)))
