How We Met

Sam and Joe first met at Good Fellows in Anderson on a chilly Winter night in early 2015. Sam was meeting some friends after they finished up their shift at Main Street Cafe, where Joe also happened to work. Her friends asked Joe if he’d like to join them in winding down after the shift, secretly hoping to set the two up. Little did they know just how enamored Joe would become with Sam; he was immediately taken by her enchanting wit, adorable smile, and stunning beauty. A few weeks later, Joe and Sam encountered each other once more. This time, their friends had organized a bowling night. Joe, having recently joined a bowling league, was hoping desperately to impress (despite his lackluster league performance). He was unaware, however, there was no amount of strikes or spares would be necessary to sway Sam’s attention; she was already iiinto him as well. Not long after, Sam came to visit Main Street Cafe as Joe was closing down the bar. After some further charming conversation in which Sam patiently tolerated Joe’s long-winded opinions on craft beer and traffic patterns, Joe finally got the hint that maybe Sam was as fond of him as he was of her. A few days later, Joe mustered up the courage to ask Sam to join him for drinks for what would become their first date on Saturday, May 23, 2015.
