In the summer of 2007 the ex-wife got the kids, house, car and I was alternating between being homeless/living in my van and crashing on friend's couches.

While crashing on one friend's couch, we learned another friend was getting married and having a bachelor party in Las Vegas. A buddy paid for my flight and hotel. All my clothes were out of fashion because I was a domesticated dad for so many years, so I cobbled together some old 90s/2000s clothes for the trip that was like Lenny Kravitz crossed with Jack Sparrow. Little did I know ...

One night we went to Club OPM. It was a black club and everyone was basically dressed in plain white T-shirts and jeans and I felt out of place so I went to the bar. I saw this Woman in Red talking to some guy next to me, or rather he was talking to her. Eventually she started talking to me until the other guy left.

She thanked me for "saving her" from him. We chat. Turns out she was an amazing Romani woman who really liked my style. She just finished making a movie about the struggle of her people called "Opre Roma: Gypsies in Canada".

I was intrigued and we talked all night, danced all night. When the lights came on, we were the only people on the dance floor. I extended my Vegas trip for a few days just to be with her. She invited me to stay with her in Vancouver, Canada for a couple weeks.

I didn't have a passport then so we met in Seattle and drove to Vancouver. While in Seattle we stayed in some iconic old rock hotel with a shared bathroom on the floor and visited the Fish Market. I go to Vancouver and she gives me the keys to her car and house and introduce me to all these comedians and musicians ... Her cousin was a Hollywood actor and DJ, I forget his name, but we are chilling in his DJ booth on some club on Granville.

Granville is a wild street, I saw a guy get knocked out cold for bumping into a guy. We sat and watched Harold and Maude because I was 30 and she was 40. We talked and I was sad because of my divorce/homeless situation and say off hand "God hates me" and she says to me she says: you are in another country with a beautiful woman ... God loves you and wants you to be happy" She was right.

That moment right there healed me, and thank God. Bitter divorced guys are the worse. That moment was probably the peak. I visited Vancouver again for another lovely time.

When I came home after that time, we had nice conversations for a while but it was winding down. At the end she admitted she had broke up with her boyfriend for cheating on her at the beginning of summer and wanted to punish him by taking me to all of their favorite places and meeting his favorite people, and they were getting back together. By that time, I had put my life back on track, had my kids and would soon have my old house again, and the long distance relationship really wasn't viable. We said goodbye and good luck.

Lmao sucks to be that guy, and hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. I had a life changing experience with his girlfriend. I came away thinking that angels are real, they come into your life for a purpose, heal you, and then leave. Frickin Highway to Heaven/Quantum Leap relationship. cherryl taggart Smartest(4) Funniest(0) 7 hours ago I was 6, he was 7.

We played in the dirt and swung from the trees. He tried to get fresh after watching Andy Taylor too much and I slugged him. We were besties after that for like 3 years. His family moved and I don't remember his last name, so I can't even look him up to see how he turned out.

Probably my second most satisfying relationship. Certainly better than my starter marriage. Smartest(0) Funniest(0) 2 hours ago Neighbor girl that I just cut through my lawn to get to. At least I didn't have to travel far.

I met a woman 12 years older than me, a dance instructor. She introduced me to such exotic things as bagels and good coffee. That summer when I finally completed all my courses it was time for me to head west and find my future. It was a great few months or so with her.

Of course she's about 80 now. Smartest(1) Funniest(1) under a minute ago I had a girlfriend every summer I can remember. Sometimes she even knew about it.

Would do anything to live there. Taught herself Japanese. Her bed was a straw mat. The posters in her room were of Japanese celebrities.

She was a freak. / She took my cherry. Displayed 9 of 9 comments Enable JavaScript for Fark in order to vote for entries. Log in (at the top of the page) to enable voting.
