Oh and he doesn't have a car, because he's kinda in some trouble, in fact, he doesn't even have a license- so you'll have to go pick him up and drive. Oh and he *may* be going to prison for 4 years because of this trouble.
Oh and if this works out, you'll have to give up your friends and family to move to Arizona, because he's sort of stuck there for insurance purposes.
No way in heck would anyone date someone when approached that way.... And that's him, in a nutshell. |
I just wanted to add that when I originally read this idea, I thought to myself 'why would anyone suggest this guy?', then I reread it and understood
What a great idea to do this! Having said that, she may understand the picture and move on, or she may be on to what you are saying and shut down
Too bad if this were to happen because you are only doing this out of a great
love/respect for your her and how you
know that she
deserves someone who is worth her time. Boy I sure hope that she 'smells the coffee'!!!! We've all made our mistakes along this road called life, but being a parent, and watching your loved one travel down a road, that seemingly isn't in their best interest, is difficult and bumpy one. And I thought being a child was hard! Please keep us posted, and I truly hope that one day you will be on the road to drop her off at the airport... to a new beginning. All the best
