I met my wife unexpectedly. I was 31 years old and only just getting back on my feet after having quit a perfectly fine job a few years earlier to chase my dream of becoming a writer. But instead of fulfilling that dream, all that had happened was me blowing through my savings and having to move back in with my parents for a period.

Eventually, I found another job and managed to move into my own place, but it hadn’t been easy climbing out of the hole I’d dug myself into. When I started dating again, I lacked confidence since I had so little to my name. A big no no for someone who was no longer in his twenties.

Then one day a friend asked if I was interested in meeting someone, a friend of his girlfriend. I said sure, without thinking much of it, and we agreed to meet at this lounge on a sort of double date.
