Had a friend once who dated people based on what she was interested in. She would tell me, "I want to learn how to ride horses," and the next thing I knew her new BF was a cowboy who was teaching her to ride. Had she wanted to learn ASL she would have hooked up with a Deaf guy.
It was her way. It worked for her. She led an interesting life.
No telling where she is now or what she is doing, but I'll bet some guy is teaching it to her.
