Sleeping With A Snake!

I first met him on the subway. He usually rode the same car as I did to go to work each day and we would usually joke and chat. He was always a perfect gentleman. We both worked down town right across the street from each other so it was just a matter of time before we met in the food court. That day finally came. While I was having lunch one day he came over and asked if he could sit with me. I said sure go ahead and we spent our whole lunch hour talking and laughing. I thought to my self what a great guy and not bad looking either. As you know, looks are not everything, but on that day I have to admit that his looks got me hooked as much as his charm.

He was recently divorced and was still adjusting to single life. He said that dating again was the toughest thing to get used to. Since I was also divorced, it was easy to commiserate with him on this point. He was a bit taken aback to find out I was divorced, he said he couldn't imagine any man not wanting to be with me. I said that it was nice of him to say that. “Well its true!” he said. “You are pretty special in my eyes, and  I would give my eye teeth if you would go out with me”. So we ended up agreeing to go on a date together.

It started out wonderfully. He had some of the same interests as me so we seemed to get along just great.Since both of us were a bit gun shy, we decided to take things a bit slow at first. As we grew closer, it just seemed inevitable that the day would come when we wanted to take things to the next level. Needless to say, both of us were quite nervous about that. Even so, we both made a commitment to go to his cottage for a romantic interlude the next weekend.

When the weekend came, he picked me up and we drove to his “cottage”. We pulled up to the so called cottage and to my surprise it looked like an outhouse. This place needed a ton of work. It was not even safe to walk into!  We had to sleep in a very small tent that I discovered had a very large snake inside. As I fled into the night screaming in fear, he ran behind me asking what he could do to make the situation more livable. I told him to get a bigger tent, like the kind a circus uses, and a queen size bed minimum. I told him that the only type of snake I was expecting to see was a trouser snake, and I had hoped it would be a good sized one too.

The next day I told him that I did not think that we would be able to make a life together. I felt bad as he drove me home, but what else could I do? He totally lied about his love nest to me. What else would he lie to me about in the future?

Later that evening, I talked to my best friend about how upset and let down I was. She proceeded to tell me some outrageous stories about crazy things that had happened to her over the years. I was laughing so hard by the end that I had tears coming out of my eyes. Thank God for that. At the end she let me know this site on the Internet that she had used to find some decent dating sites. It was how she had found her current boyfriend, and it was looking pretty serious. I thought, “What the heck. How can it hurt?” So I gave it a try.

I had almost given up hope again after several months of being on more than one dating site. I would have quit if my sister and friends did not keep encouraging me. I mean, I had chatted and emailed a bunch of different guys, and had even gone out with a few, but there was just no chemistry. It was at this low point in my online dating adventure that I stumbled onto 'him'. He was what I was looking for. Finally! It was as if God had tailor made him for me! We talked online for several weeks and then he gave me his phone number and asked me to give him a call. When I called, there seemed to be something familiar about his voice, but I could not place it. We had a great time talking over the next few weeks. He liked everything that I liked it seemed. And he was not faking it, because he could actually talk in depth about the things I was interested in. We did not always agree, but we sure had fun! And it was just so stimulating! I was so joyous I had someone who cared about me enough to give me that URL. I still cannot imagine what a better gift could be. |I was floating on air. I felt like a teenager again.|I was bouncing around like a teenager. Bubbling with enthusiasm and overjoyed. All my friends noticed and remarked on it!|During that time, I was so happy that all my friends kept commenting on it. What a joy he brought to my life!

About the only thing that was strange about our online relationship was that I had never seen his picture. He said that he was not photogenic and felt it would be best if I judged his looks by seeing him in person.The day finally came for me to meet my prince charming but something was not quite right when we spoke on the phone the night before. He suggested that I would run the other way when I saw him and that left me confused. I was beginning to be concerned about what he looked like. I had visions of the Hump Back of Notre Dame going through my head! Even when I gave him my assurances that I would stay put, he still seemed unconvinced.

He suggested that instead of picking me up it would be better for me to meet him at his summer home. He gave me directions and as I drove along I noticed that the scenery seem to be a little familiar. Then like a ton of bricks, it hit me. This is where the snake guy lived! Holy Cow! What had I gotten into? I almost turned around and left, but I had given him my word, so I was determined to see it through to the end. He met me on the road about a half mile from where I was to meet him, no wonder he was worried I would run.

As I got out of the car, I walked to the trunk opened it and proceeded to look for my tire iron so I could clobber him. He caught my hands before I could do anything, told me to calm down and wait to see the rest of his surprise before I reacted. As he lead me to what I thought was going to be the old out house, I stopped dead in my tracks. I was stunned! I couldn't believe my eyes! There standing before me was the most beautiful cottage I had ever seen. He said he had never stopped loving me, but felt that he had to do something special to win me back.

He told me he decided to finish the cottage for me first, because I deserved something special and nice. He took out a loan and used all his savings. He did all that just for me! “WOW!” I was overwhelmed. I began to cry to think that someone could care about me so much.

That was quite some time ago now, and things are even better now than they were then. The more I am with him, the more I love him. We finally tied the knot a couple of years later, even though we lived together for quite a while first. That was just me making sure that we were really compatible. If anything, the more I am with him even now, the more certain I am that every bad thing that had happened in my life before I met him happened so that I could appreciate him better.

Now technically, I did not meet this guy on that dating site really, but if I had not met him again anonymously, I would likely have never given him that second chance. Ouch! Thank God for that dating site! My best friend has earned my perpetual gratitude for giving me that URL. I am forever grateful to her.
