Love In The Psychic Realm

Shots Of Silver
When I first mustered enough courage to ask Jacquelyn out, I put a lot of effort into preparing.

I got tickets to the hottest concert coming to town, practiced what I was going to say
and took up meditation to calm my nerves
because the very sight of her always made me break into a cold sweat--
​but the good kind.


The day came. I took a deep breath, went "ohmmm" and walked up to her.

"Hi," I said.


"Hi," she replied,
"Say, I've been meaning to mention it to you
but I've been thinking that maybe we should go out sometime. What do you say?"


"Well, yeah, we should," I answered, a little startled,
"I've got tickets to the hottest concert coming to town!"


"Great! Pick me up early and we'll have dinner and a drink before we go."

And she was gone.

This was a pattern that was to repeat itself many times as the months went by.



Later, after much deliberation,
I decided that I was going to ask Jacquelyn what she thought about us living together.


I picked a quiet evening; we had takeout and were going to watch a movie.


"Ohmmm."

"What's that, darling?" she asked.

"Jacqui, there's something I want to talk to you about.
​I want you to tell me your honest opinion on this, whatever it might be . . ."


"You know handsome," she interrupted, rather rudely I thought,
"I have been thinking about something that I want to give you my honest opinion about.
I think that maybe we should get a place together.
What do you say?"


"That would be great," I told her, "That would be great."

She stayed.

Still later, after I came to realize that I couldn't picture life without her--
I bought a ring, arranged for a secluded corner table at a nice restaurant
​and practiced, practiced, practiced what I was going to say.


The moment came.

"Sweetheart, I have something to ask you . . ." I began.


"You know darling," she interjected,
​"I have something that I've been wanting to ask you too.
​I've been thinking . . ."


I put my hand gently to her mouth to shush her and got down on one knee.

Not this time, I thought; this one time I go first.


"Jacquelyn, I love you.
It would make me the happiest guy who ever lived if you would marry me.
​What do you say?"

She said yes and from then on I just let her read my mind unabated.
​It works out fine.

Ohmmm.
