As told by Andy...

On a warm summer evening in the abyss of Facebook videos, a notification pops up. It read, "Myrlem Samantha Fonseca commented on your post. Hesitantly, he clicks on the notification, hoping a woman would see his true worth. The reply said: "Is this how you pick up girls?" As I eat a punch to my pride, I ponder a rebuttal that would grab her attention. The endless thoughts raced through my head like a school of fish stuck in between a tuna feeding frenzy. What could I possibly say to something like that? Do I conform as a beta-male and say "No, I would rather be more of a gentleman than use childish pick-up lines, or do I full-send this pickup line I learned from the video in a more witty way?" If you guessed the full send, you are invited to the after-party because that's exactly what I did. I sat up in my chair and I shot my shot, and asked her if she's from China. She laughed and said that's not going to work on her. Now my ego has been completely shut down, and I'm stuck in a pinch. I have to finish this pick-up line somehow and that's where I said I'm just China, get your number, Sam. That was it, ladies and gentlemen, hook, line, and sinker. This woman actually gave me her phone number, a real girl this time! I couldn't believe it. After a few dates, we connected pretty well like peanut butter and jelly. Sam, she's pretty cool, and by the grace of god, she thought I was something special. My friends and family think I'm "special," but not in the same way Sam sees it. We became an official couple on 4/20/2018 (R.I.P. Bob Marley) (hi, it's me, Sam, it's technically 4/21 but he will die on the 4/20 hill), and it's been nothing but smooth roller coaster rides with each other. We originally wanted to use all the money we saved up in 2019-2020 to buy her ring and do the whole wedding thing but instead we chose to invest our funds together into a fabulous townhouse in Kendall where we have shared the last 5 years. I presented her with the options of a wedding or a house, and she chose the house. BEST DECISION EVER, cause it was pre-COVID turmoil when we bought it, and it's super nice, all the house is missing is a golf simulator. We have been living together happily with our two dogs Bailey and Bruce, and we have nothing but constant strives to make each other better and to pursue our goals and dreams every step of the way. We are now in the hunt to be scratch golfers, I am coming for you Scottie Scheffler.
