About this episode
He DID THE TRICK and convinced her to GO OUT with him. He was ALL FIRED UP when he finally got the chance to TAKE her OUT for their first date. It TURNED OUT that their houses were STONE’S THROW apart. They were LIVING IN the same neighborhood but they haven’t gotten the chance to meet each other before. He was waiting for this moment for so long. He was single for years, but he didn’t want to CROSS THE BRIDGE WHEN HE CAME TO IT unless he found the girl that highly be the love of his life. It was HANDS DOWN the best coincidence of his life and he wanted to get to know her even more. While they were waiting for their plates, he let her talk about herself. He was LISTENING UP to her very carefully. He was looking at her as if an angel was in front of him. He liked everything about her. He liked her smile. He liked her laugh. He liked the way she expressed herself. But also he could tell how much she was happy spending time with him. He really hoped that things would go the way he wanted them to. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
