First girlfriend, real small town energy now that Iโ€™m looking back on it. Not interested in trying foods from various cultures, her idea of a vacation would be something like Disneyland or a resort, not going out to foreign cities and experiencing them. Definitely would not have worked out.

She ended up marrying my ex-best friend when I went off to college. Worked out better for both of us, honestly. No way I could have stayed in my hometown doing the same things more or less for the past 20 years.
