You asked: "It sounds like she chose you. What is it about her that you love? What is it about her that makes you want to have her as your wife (other than your daughter)?"
Many things. She's funny. She's sexy. She's smart. She's a good mother. She laughs at my jokes. Well, most of my jokes anyway. We have a lot of the same interests. We first met through my interest in jazz and blues. We went to bars together to hear bands. Well, I went to hear the performers (the drinking was secondary). She was more interested in drinking (music being secondary). We're trying to recapture this initial time in our courtship by going to listen to live music around town again. We both like this. We sort of forgot about it over the years, what with raising a daughter, paying for a house, changing jobs, moving, etc.
