How We Met


May/June 2006  - After a BBQ and some pregaming with my college girlfriends we made our way to a hooka bar for our last hooray with our dear friend Francesca who was moving to Italy after graduation.  




After some flavored tobacco we decided to head over to One Little West Fourth Street in the Meat packing district for some more damage!



It just so happened that Robert was with his co-works at One this same night. His friend dared him to talk to a girl and decided to test his game (aka his ability to pick up girls). For those that know Robert I'm sure you know that I'm not over exaggerating when I say that he is extremely competitive and does not like to loose. After making his round around the lounge he then climbed over couches, imagine something like the below, in order to make his way to me!


I had my back to him but Ecenia, my partner in crime, was facing him and made sure to tell me that there was this CRAZY white guy approaching making bird signs! He clearly was trying to send signals to his co-workers that he was on the prey. After a brief intro he offered to buy me a drink and in matter of minutes he had secured his first set of brownie points. Although I didn't expect much from meeting a guy at a lounge he certainly found a way to smitten me. And the rest is history!
