Christine Cole, 50, reflects on her fateful encounter with her husband Jesse on an airplane ten years ago. After exchanging polite conversation during their flight, the two felt an instant connection. Jesse, going through a divorce, found solace in their dialogue, while Christine felt he was a genuinely good person. The bond was solidified when she gave him her business card, leading to a cherished relationship that culminated in marriage just nine months later. Recently, they reminisced about this pivotal meeting at the same airport, underscoring the significance of that seemingly ordinary day.
As we waited to get off the plane, he asked where my next gate was, offering to walk with me through the airport to my gate. That didn't feel at all weird to walk with this stranger.
He told me how he appreciated our conversation and how I had treated him with respect. He felt I had really listened to him.
Before we got off the plane, I gave him my business card because I thought he could use a friend.
A little voice inside me said that this was a good guy. Turns out I wasn't wrong.
