I don't know if I'm being cynical or what?
So this speaker, one of our higher ups, is telling us about how he met his wife. So his exact words is that he met her at the church, gets on the same public transport as her every time to know where she lives. But she's smart (his words) and he never got to know where her exact home is. So he tried and tried again, and even pretended that he lives in the same neighborhood as her so it wasn't creepy that he's been following her and getting off at the same place as her.
The audience (excluding me) were like aww that's cute. That's romantic and such.
And I'm there thinking is it really? It only sounds to that he's been stalking her for days until she notice him, and he's romanticizing it is as a "cute-meet" when it's actually really creepy.
Dunno. Maybe I'm just being cynical? Or is it really stalkish like I think it is?
Two ways to read this: 1) yes, it's creepy & he should be reported to the cops, or 2) This is why most of our native-born population is shrinking: because romance is truly dead.

Glad I'm not the only one thinking that was creepy... I can't believe he actually what he done is romantic and proudly sharing it to us 🙃🤦♂️
@JobiLee There's another angle to the situation: They're married now. If the woman had no idea what he was up to before they got hitched, does it really matter? If anyone reports him for doing it, well...there is a statute of limitations for most crimes (other than mur.der), if we're gonna call it a crime at this point. The SOL is usually seven years.
@JobiLee 😮😮that is not cute or romantic, that is just plain creepy and wrong. Whoever this speaker is should be reported to the police. You are definitely not being cynical.

Thanks Tiny! Glad I'm not alone thinking that. He's really creepy, isn't he? Mades me wonder how she became his wife 🤦♂️
@JobiLee If these events happened around this time of year maybe it was just Christmas stalking. 😂
