The Classic "How I Met Your Mother" Story Tue, Feb 11, 2020

Hey everyone! So, yes, this is going to be a bit cheesy and also a fairly funny story about how my parents met. They have just recently celebrated over 30 years of marriage, and continue to be each other's partner in crime. Interestingly, but not so interestingly, they met at a party! Of course, this was a "set up" type of date, in which the two young adults knew "of" one another but neither knew much on a personal level,  nor had they discovered yet what the other looked like. While my dad did know my mother's name, he did not know much else besides the fact that she was Chinese. While the party continued on, and my mother waited patiently for my father to approach, my father found himself in a bit of a situation. While he did note the presence of my mother, he also noted the presence of another Chinese woman with similar features and stature. So instead of asking someone who was who, he decided not to talk to either one of them the whole night! This was out of both foolishness and fear.

You might be asking yourself, so just how did my father end up with my mother in the end? Well, it took some time and a very long apologetic phone call to clear up the issue. My father managed to track down my mother's number and fortunately, she picked up. He explained his utter confusion and apologized for the rudeness.They ended up talking for hours surprisingly! Next came their first official date and the rest, well you should know, is history...
