The bird's eye view of the beginning

My once husband and I met at university in Wales. He was there as part of an exchange program for six months and we both lived on campus.

Our eyes met across a crowded bar. He was trying to get my attention, my friend was trying to get his attention, and I was getting irritated because he was distracting my friend from listening to the story I was relaying with great intent.

Glancing up to ascertain the source of all her gawping, I spotted the culprit on the far side of the room, smiling widely and directly at me. I smiled back but it was more of a grimace, accompanied with a rather dismissive wave of the hand. I really did just want to tell my friend my story! Anyway, I immediately regretted my actions and, upon seeing him more around campus, I really, really regretted them!

As luck would have it, five months later, he asked me to go for a drink at the pub with him. Ten years after that we were married. No one can accuse us of rushing into anything.
