So I was on a date last night with a guy who is in the final stages of a divorce. We went out to dinner, and who should happen to be at the restaurant but…dum dum dum…his wife.

His wife.

I am not making this up.

They’ve been legally separated for a year and at this point, it’s just a matter of putting the final paperwork through. They remain on amicable terms (although he did say “We’ll see if that holds true after this.” eek!). She and her friend were dining on the patio, and said she saw him walk by. So she stopped by the table to say hello on her way to the ladies’ room.

I’m betting she also wanted a closer look at me…

He said, “I thought these things only happened in the movies.”

I said, “Well, if it didn’t actually happen to people in real life, no one would write it into a movie…”
