I went into our only grocery store in town yesterday and headed down the isle to the TV dinners. There was an older gentleman standing there at the door I was going to use. Good looking, about 6'2" tall and a nice bod. He said, "I'll save you some." I started laughing and we chit-chatted for a few minutes.
Continued on and when I got to the check-out; guess who was in front of me? Yuppers, Mr. Good Looking. He told the cashier, "I'm gonna buy all her food." I said, "Seriously?" You don't have to do that." He said it was his good deed for the day and besides, 'he's wealthy'.
I thought; dang, I'd like to get to know him better (snicker).
I told him thank you and we chatted a few more minutes. I asked him if it was okay to give him a hug and he said sure. So we did. Dang it; he didn't ask for my phone number. 
My groceries came to $61. Bless his heart. I don't even know his first name; dang it!

Haha that's great. These things don't happen daily so probably you were at right place at right time

You got that right @Butterfingers . Just the odds of being in the same check out line and the fact that we were both done shopping at the same time is amazing.

@rebelann Since he probably knows as many cops as I do here, he's liable to show up at my door one day.

He asked me how long I had lived in Fairfield and I said 22 years. He said he was born there and he can remember when that grocery store was a drive-in theater. I'm shocked we haven't run into each other before @rebelann .

@marlina Sorta-kinda. I just don't know what I'd do with a guy in my life at this time.

I was definitely surprised @jaboUK .In reality though, I probably just look like a pathetic, old fart that needed some help.

Sometimes life can be full of surprises. Who knew that frozen food section was so attractive
