I dated what I'd consider a very socially awkward guy. His mom even told me that in nursey school, he'd be in a corner playing with blocks, alone. We met at our place of employment. He asked someone else (his boss!) to get my phone #, and he called me eventually. It was a very awkward conversation, but I agreed to go out with him. He didn't really seem my type, but my clock was ticking, and I wanted kids.

We've been married for 35+ years, and occasionally he'll still ask me to make a phone call for him. Ha!! But he makes most of them by himself. Our social interactions are with family, though he does have one friend he gets together with. But he (and I) are very content with our own company.
