That's actually how my parents met. They were pen pals. My mom was in the Philippines and my father was in the States, and they wrote to each other. He went out to meet her, and they wed not too long after.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was born out of a Vegas marriage: My parents got married three days after they met.
My parents were very, very close; they pretty much grew up together. They were born in 1912. They were each other's only boyfriend and girlfriend. They were - to use a contemporary term I hate - co-dependent, and they had me very late. So they had their way of doing things, and they reinforced each other.
My father moved to Hawaii from Brooklyn and my mother came there as a child from the Philippines. They met at a show where my dad was playing percussion. My mom was a hula dancer.
My father married out of the family. I also married outside the family.
Between them, my parents had 10 marriages.
My father and mother were second cousins, though they did not meet till shortly before their marriage.
My parents didn't really know one another.
My mom's been married three times; my dad has been married a lot. I didn't really see my dad that much.
I didn't know my father very well; I only met him a few times.
My mother and father met at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. He was a senior and she was a junior, and their marriage didn't last very long.
