Popular Post Longjohn ★ Posted April 4, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted April 4, 2022 So when she said she had to cancel our big walk on Saturday I drove to her house to try to help bring wisdom and reassurance to the situation. I stayed until late that night. Yesterday after church she called and wanted to meet me. We walked and talked at mill creek park. This morning I got a call asking what my plans for today were. She is driving over to see me. I haven’t hidden my feelings for her and she has been cautious because of past experience. I think she has fallen for me.

Kirby Posted April 4, 2022 Share #2 Posted April 4, 2022 Enjoy this time getting to know her and letting her get to know you. It's good to see how people handle the bad times as well as the good times. I'm glad you're having fun with this experience. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be over there all day tomorrow, Nancy time until 3:00 when we pick up Hannah from school. Probably won’t have much Nancy time after that. Then the three of us take Itsaso to basketball practice in Akron. We wait on her for 2 1/2 hrs because it’s too far to drive home and come back. We might go to a movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Longjohn ★ Posted April 6, 2022 Author Popular Post Share #32 Posted April 6, 2022 We might work something out after Itsaso goes back to Spain. Tonight at basketball practice we were in the cafeteria and Hannah was keeping me busy. I told her I was going to go sit with Nancy. She said: “Why do you want to sit with her? She is no fun”. I told her a secret, I want to marry Nancy and as soon as I think she will say yes I’m going to ask her. Hannah’s mouth dropped open and she ran right over to Nancy and told her what I said. Then Hannah said: “I’m not very good at keeping secrets”. LOL 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We talk about marriage a lot. I have told her I’m not going to ask her to marry me until I know the answer will be yes. Last time I proposed to someone (the only time), it was a real question and I didn’t know how she would answer. Esther asked me question after question all day long before she finally said yes at 11:25pm. Im not going to go through that again. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy is flying back with her when she goes home. Her mom wants to meet her American mom and has invited her to stay with them for a couple weeks. They want to show her around. I’m sure Nancy will have lots of stories to tell when she returns. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has good parts, less lawn work, closer to doctors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
