Message-ID: <263@cbosgd.UUCP> Date: Fri, 31-Aug-84 17:36:11 EDT Article-I.D.: cbosgd.263 Posted: Fri Aug 31 17:36:11 1984 Date-Received: Mon, 3-Sep-84 09:48:56 EDT Distribution: net Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories, Columbus Lines: 28 [*] Let's try some stories (with happy endings?) rather than fighting! The subject line says it all. For those of you who don't have an SO, anecdotes from past involvements, and for those of you who haven't had the joy, maybe just reading the responses will help, but you might submit a friend's story if you need to respond. There must be lots of good stories out there... I met my current SO when she responded to a personal ad I placed in a university daily (1.5 yrs ago) looking for "an intelligent, attractive lady friend with an interest in science." She almost didn't respond. Needless to say, we are both glad she did. I met a previous SO in a library. She was sitting across from me, and I offered her a lifesaver. We sat together a few more times, and went out together a few times, but it wasn't until about 2 years later, after I had moved to Denmark and back, that we really "clicked". On more than one occasion, I have had good experiences dating women who a male friend of mine had "dropped." The longest relationship of my high school days started this way.
