TWI #7 If I'm Still Single at 40: A Promise Made in 1999

Send us Fan MailConnections formed decades ago sometimes have a way of circling back into our lives in the most unexpected ways. This episode opens a window into the web of relationships that shape our everyday experiences, from work friendships to romantic partnerships.Ever made a drunken promise at a wedding back in 1999? Dave shares the surprising story of how he and his girlfriend Leanne first met as children, drifted in and out of each other's lives for thirty years, and made a marriage pact during a smoke break at her sister's wedding decades ago. Fast forward to reconnecting via social media last August, and that casual promise made between friends has transformed into something neither of them expected.The podcast takes listeners through Dave's recent adventures, from getting "dressed up" (which he compares to "putting mag wheels on a rubbish bin") for a 21st birthday party to the momentous meeting between his girlfriend and his misunderstood workplace friendship with his "work wife." There's a refreshing authenticity to Dave's storytelling as he discusses his lease renewal, his shared bachelor pad with its Viking flags and "girly touches," and his appreciation for the international listeners tuning in from America and Ireland.Listen to this episode for a genuine glimpse into the sometimes messy, often funny ways our paths intertwine with others. And stay tuned for future episodes where Dave promises to bring Leanne on as a guest to correct his admittedly spotty memory of their shared history.
