Mr. Website

When I met my husband, he introduced himself as the "website guy" of our young single adult ward.  This normally shy guy butted right in on another guy's conversation with me.  He had served a mission for our church in Seattle, WA and when I mentioned that I had just moved from Seattle, he wanted to talk to me.  So, I gave him my email address so that I could be notified of all the activities going on.  Well, before our three hour block of church was over, he had my phone number.

Once upon a time I was engaged to a guy with the same surname as my husband's (no relation). Well, after we had been out on a few dates, I asked him what his last name was. His reply stopped me in my tracks.  I hadn't wanted to mention this ex-engagement so soon after meeting him.   I said, "I use to date a guy with that name."  To which he replied, "Oh, you got a thing for (surname)."  I bluntly and tactlessly said, "no."  Then the story came out. 

Luckily for Mr. Website, I wasn't going to stop seeing him on a minor technicality like a name. 

Luckily for me, neither was Mr. Website.
