Today's question is from @Sally PB:

Do you know how your parents met?

I think they met at a college dance.

 

[notabitail]

I don't remember how.

 

[R2elk]

I wasn't alive back then so don't know for sure.

My mother's sister was either a friend or coworker of my father's sister and I think that is the connection.

 

[CCsGarden]

don't remember!

 

[azurbanclucker]

Yes. My Grandpa owned a Dog-N-Suds (chain like a Sonic or A/W with car hops) and Mom was working there. Dad was stationed at the Marine base and used to go down and flirt with her.

In high school….mom was dating dad’s best friend

 

[FrostRanger]

Evidently they were pen pals?

 

[BigBlueHen53]

They went to school together. Mom married someone else but that didn't work out so she married Dad.

 

[5Australorpasaures]

Same neighborhood as kids.

 

[Evadig]

It’s a long story.
