I placed an ad on facebook marketplace, Craigslist, and our local newspaper that read “Middle aged man desperate for a woman to put her pussy on my face” Jess was the only woman to respond to the post and this is what I got! We have been solid since.

In all seriousness. I was at work one night and had to take a class mandatory for work. As I thought about it, I said to myself I don’t want to waste a day off taking an online class. I looked at the schedule and found a class for the next day that would allow for only a few hours of sleep but I could take it and then go to work that night, so I signed up for that class. The next morning I woke up after a couple hours of sleep and logged into the class. Opposite me on the computer screen was a very attractive woman with an amazing smile. My molecules were jostled immediately. During the class a couple of coworkers texted me to let me know that she did not have a ring on her finger (UMM DUH!!! Think I didn’t notice that!!!). That afternoon I did what any middle-aged man would do… I face book stalked her and then messaged her on facebook messenger.

When she didn’t respond to my Facebook messenger message I used my access at work to access her personal information in HR and went to her house and waited at her front door until she came home. Ok just kidding about the last part.

She messaged me back and we went on a date the following week to Pomodori in Medford. I must have made a good impression.

My version of the story is a little different… I was teaching a class online and it was the largest I had taught alone. I was nearly terrified. As I shuffled papers in nervous preparation, I looked up at the computer screen and saw my soul mate. Jason had the most beautiful smile I had ever seen and was making a few jokes with his co-workers… I was hooked.

He found my contact info online and reached out to ask: “I was wondering if you wanted to get coffee, coffee and dinner, dinner and drinks, or just drinks.” I immediately responded and couldn’t wait to meet him.

Since that day, he has been my person. I can’t wait to spend the rest of our lives together.
