I told him I liked country music and used to frequent
a particular bar, which had closed down about fifteen
years ago. Naturally, he asked me about the name of the
bar back then. I told him it was Club Palomino. He was
really surprised and told me he used to play there. I
wasn’t sure whether to believe him or not! He said
he would send me a picture of his band that played there.
I thought, “Yeah right, this is too much of a coincidence.”
to myself as I waited patiently in front of my computer
for the picture.
Lo and behold! A huge picture with the words “Cheyenne”
and “Club Palomino” came up on my screen.
I freaked out! I couldn’t believe it! It was him
in the picture with Cheyenne. The guy I was interested
in was the rhythm guitar player in my favourite band.
I was so shocked that I went crazy after seeing the picture!
It was just unbelievable! It was like a miracle that suddenly
happened! It was like a fairy tale!
We carried on chatting every moment we had for some time
and eventually, he gave me his phone number. We started
talking on the phone every night. It was just amazing
all the things we had in common about everything! Yes,
it was too good to be true! After about three weeks of
talking on the phone every night, chatting on the computer
and exchanging pictures, we decided to meet. I was brave
enough to allow him to pick me up at my mother’s
place as I had developed a trust in him through listening
to his honest voice. I met him downstairs in front of
my mother’s apartment building. He got out of his
car and the first thing we did was to look at each other
and start laughing. We laughed like crazy and couldn’t
stop laughing! He took me to the local Canadian Legion
where we talked, had a drink together (still laughing)
and got more acquainted.
Eventually we went into another room and sat down at
a table. After a while, he asked me if I mind if he got
up on stage to do a solo. I definitely did not mind as
being in the company of a man singing with his guitar
is like being in heaven. He got up on stage and started
playing his guitar and singing in front of an audience.
That did it for me. I was hooked! The guy I admired fifteen
years ago was performing in front of my eyes and was my
date! I was in heaven! We dated for about two years and
it was absolutely wonderful. Eventually we bought a condominium
and have been living together for two and a half years
now. Then, the final surprise! After moving into our condominium,
we looked out of our window and to our astonishment we
saw the office building of the dating site that brought
us together. What a coincidence that was! In March 2008,
we would have been together for five years, playing music
and still laughing! We are just like two peas in a pod.
He met my friend who I was with at Club Palomino fifteen
years ago and he remembered seeing us dancing while his
band Cheyenne played. He also remembered me standing at
the bar at times. I used to watch him go to the bar for
his coffee and I knew our eyes met at that time. It felt
strange crossing one another’s path some fifteen
years ago only to be together now in the future and remembering
it all!
By the way, that short blonde girl he was with at Club
Palomino was the girl he married for eight years. He went
through a brutal divorce. He did tell me that I should
have approached him and told him “She is bad news.”
when I first saw him at Club Palomino fifteen years ago.
It’s funny how life is - it just wasn’t meant
to be back then. Fate brought us together. We met our
soul mates all thanks to that dating site!
