[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 251012, member: 84"] *wonders how I missed that thread* I met husband thru my cousin Darrin. See, Darrin was going into the Army and he had a major case of Hero worship with his recruiter. Weeks and weeks he drives me crazy wanting me to meet this dude who put him into the Army. Weeks and weeks of cousin Darrin begging me to think about joining myself so he could get a big fat bonus on his own enlistment. lol Lucky I love my cousin like a brother. Finally I couldn't stand it anymore and agreed. husband came over and gave me his spiel. So.....to please my cousin, I agreed to test. I scored outragiously high in all areas. And suddenly found myself having to stall because I never had any intention of going into the military......and husband was a nice guy and I didn't want to hurt his feelings. So. One night my cousin calls and he says my brother and his fiance wanted to get together at the park. Darrin didn't want to go alone. So on a whim, and totally out of character......I called husband at the recruiting station and asked him out! When I got home that night I called my sister and told her I'd just had a first date with the man I'd marry. She told me I was stupid. lol Two weeks later husband and I were married. :D A nice little church wedding that almost gave my Mom a stroke. That was 25 yrs ago. And yes.......in case you're wondering.......my cousin Darrin is who my grandson is named after. My cousin survived his 4 yrs in the Army jumping out of airplanes without a scratch. Came home and was killed in a hit and run motorcycle accident. [/QUOTE]
