What a great story Downing. We always have been told by our parent's to watch what we say. In your case? What you said didn't get you into trouble, it got you into a wonderful life in marriage with this man. I guess it's true when they say "expect the unexpected".downing said:Oh boy.. here I go...
I had to transfer to other drawing class (yes - NUDE) because I had a rift with a professor that I could not get along at RIT. The Dean of Art agreed that I would be better off in other class because for some reasons the Professor kept picking on me and giving me some of hell. Even the professor got warning.. he still did it (eventually he got fired the next year- thank god for it).
I was awkard about going to another drawing class because i was already in middle of my quarter of the year (2nd Quarter)...meaning I would have to meet new group that follows same schedule. there are like three groups on three diff same schedule so they all kept the same ppl for three yrs thru foundation of art. Its complicated anywayyyyy..
I went to drawing class. of course all hearing.. only three deaf guys that the dean told me.. me being only deaf lady.. oh boy.. I met all two but not the third one.. I just chose the desk next to a guy that looked like he had a major hangover. This friend of mine siad oh don't bother him, he s always out... I went ohh okayy..whatever..
Eventually that day. This guy looked up and stared at me. I thought he was an hearing guy, I said hi there. he looked mean guy.. then went back to ingore me. I told myself. jeez what an asshole...okay whatever as long i know he is an damn loser.
Eventually few days, i asked my friend. where is the third deaf guy that I was told I would meet.. my friend said well you already met him. I said really? who?? he said well that asshole you were telling me. Then I looked around and saw him watching me.. feeling I was idiot the whole time making fun of him and not realizing he was deaf. Eventually we became good friends the following years. he roommated my ex bf and shared same bday....
I broke up my ex bf... I was home for the summer, my hubby called me in the summer and chatted til we came back for our last yr at RIT. we started dating and we knew we hit it off. we have known each other for 12 yrs...married for 7 yrs, and we have two wonderful little boys... I guess I did marry my asshole guy...
Leibling what a beautiful story of love, respect and patience your husband Uwe had for you!!!! The most important ingredients for a successful life together. You both were lucky to find each other.Liebling:-))) said:wow interesting thread here...
My German hubby Uwe and group from Deaf Club went to London for 3 days from Germany to play friendly football match with the group from my Deaf Club in London. That's where I met him in May 1983... It's cute that we can't understand our languages... we use English/German dictonary and also body gesture...
I laughed at Uwe and don't beleive him when he asked for exchange our addresses. I thought he would forget me when he went back to Germany.
I was speechless when he wrote cute English (he pick English from German/English dictonary) postcard. I got his postcards/letters every 2 days... I began realize that he is serious about me and meant honestly that he fall in love with me in hard way when he asked me what I do during summer time. I told him about booked my holiday plan to Africa with my friend at 6 months ago but he asked me where/which hotel we will spend our holiday. I was like and give him the hotel where we will stay. He went to book the same hotel and inform us that he will come one week later after our arrival. I was speechless...
We enjoyed our one week vacation in Africa then Uwe came... I can't beleive when the manager of hotel gave me a note telling me which room number Uwe stay. I can't beleive it's really him who follow me to Africa.. We spend other 2 weeks vacation and can't beleive that Uwe is very patience and very respect when I don't want to be his lover yet but give me time to be enjoy first... I grow love him more and more every day thru his gentle and respectful way.
One month later in September 1983 after our vacation in Africa, I went to visit Uwe & his family in Germany for one week vacation. We become wonderful lover...... and then go Germany again to spent Christmas holiday in December 1983. It grow worst and deep in love...
His first visit to London to spent his 1 week holiday with me in my apartment where I celebrate my 21st birthday party in Feb. 1984.
Uwe asked me to marry him in August 1984 in Germany where we sit on the bench in hill of forest to have view on sunset.
Uwe & I celebrated alone our engagement on Boxing Day 1984 and first saw that Uwe lit the candles and fall in love it... Unforgetable...
We saw each other 13 times in 1983 to 1985 and also wrote letters awful alot then married on 7th September 1985 in London then go off for week honeymoon in Paris before left England to live in Germany on 15th September 1985. (We still keep our letter in attic)... I sometimes re-read those letter when I clean in the attics...
We decided to not want to have babies right now and want to enjoy each other first and began to travel every Europe and overseas alot for 7 years before start to buy the land to built our dream house then start family...
We married happily for almost 20 years now and have 2 handsome sons. I have everything what I dream for...

I was not even interested in her at first but she liked me. I thought she was too good for me. She really helped turn my life around. She was my first real girlfriend. We broke up a year later. She graduated and went to Gallaudet. I was a senior in high school when we got back together again. I saw her at a party and the magic was still there. I graduated school and went to Gallaudet. Well, she broke up with me in college..AGAIN!! I was crushed and ended up leaving school and going back to California. I ended up getting getting married and then divorced. Well, 15 years go by and I have 3 kids and a good business. Out of the blue she emails me and says "how are you?". She flies from Maryland to California to visit. Well, she never returned to Maryland. She stayed! We have been together since. We have a unique connection. I have a twin sister and Erin has a twin sister. How about that? Twins in love! She is, was, and always will be the love of my life. I'm lucky to have Erin back with me. I love this lady!
