We met in law school and became a part of the same circle of friends. We studied, went out to lunch, partied, and studied some more together. A year later Francisco asked me out on a date.  I eagerly accepted. We had dinner at Buca di Beppo in City Walk where we talked for hours and really got to know one another.  That's when I realized this was the beginning of something very special.

Valerie always played hard to get at the beginning.  The first time I asked her out she actually stood me up.  Valerie has "Selective Amnesia" during this part of our story.  In Law School we usually studied about 10 to 12 hours a day, 6 days a week so it was never a question of would we see each other but instead when would we see each other.  So, based on this I asked her if she wanted to spend our Saturday study break at a wine tasting nearby, she said sure.  Well, guess who didn't show up to school at all on that Saturday?  It was probably the only Saturday of studying she ever missed.  It's a good thing I don't quit but the rest is history we finally did have that first date and we've been inseparable ever since even on Saturday afternoons.
