[sotenbori]

hey professor thanks for your help
i just wanted to let you know it all worked out

[originallutece]

Did it? In which way?

[sotenbori]

We're dating, now I guess

[originallutece]

You guess? Or you know? I normally wouldn't nitpick, but considering how this started . . .

[sotenbori]

for real
he asked me
i was surprised

[originallutece]

To say the least.

[And she could leave it at that, but . . .]

Where did he do it? And was it simply a matter of him getting his courage up before you, or--?

[sotenbori]

he asked a 16 year old for advice

[originallutece]

Well, at least you win; you asked a twenty-three year old for advice.

[sotenbori]

why wouldn't i ask a twenty-three year old for advice

[originallutece]

Because you're far older?

[sotenbori]

this is a really common mistake apparently
but i turned 24 a couple weeks ago

[originallutece]

[. . .]

Are you telling me that not only did I take matchmaking advice from a man ten years my junior, but spent most of my Saturday afternoon in the company of a group of people more suited to a college fraternity than a restaurant?

[sotenbori]

Yes

[originallutece]

Fantastic. Any other secrets you'd like to confess?

[sotenbori]

my age isn't a secret????

[originallutece]

It was to me.

[sotenbori]

only cause you assumed i was older

[originallutece]

You run a shop! That isn't typical for your age bracket!

[sotenbori]

i just got lucky

[originallutece]

How so?

[sotenbori]

The business was failing before I bought it so I got it for a good price

[originallutece]

I'd say that's more accomplishment than luck, given you managed to make it a success.

[sotenbori]

The accomplishment was turning it around
Finding it was the lucky part

[originallutece]

How long have you been running it?

[sotenbori]

About a year, now.
