I mean instances where you have struck up a friendship with a random stranger. I'll start with a friend of mine I met in Texas when he'd called my number by mistake but ended up having a long conversation after I recognised his last name on the caller ID. He was from the part of Africa as my dad and his last name was an anglo one which only a few people had and most were related. Turned out he was related to a childhood friend. We became great buddies. 10 years later we are still in contact.
Then there was the time I was new to Los Angeles and working in the classified ads dept of the Daily News (some 20 something years ago) when this guy with an incredibly sexy french accent called. He needed a room mate and at the time I was looking for somewhere to live. The ad never was placed and I moved in a week later.
i met two friends when i drove up from Tennessee to Pittsburgh to see my favorite band. this was about 8 months before i moved to Chicago. one was S, and she lived in Chicago. the other was E, and she was going to school in Pittsburgh, but was moving to Chicago after graduating.
i moved to Chicago and stayed in touch with E.
i ran into S at a show in Chicago and met her friend K, who is a guy.
K and I hung out for a while and always talked about this girl L that "it was weird with" and she was in Korea for a year teaching.
back in May, E said that she was moving in with her friend M and this other girl, L, who has the same name as the girl that K was batty over. turns out that my friend E was moving in with THAT L.
now, basically I'm friends with E and L, but don't see S very often... and L basically said that K was full of crap and she was never in love with him.
we don't exactly talk to him anymore.

I meet people everywhere all the time. I'm like a damn fart in a windstorm. For example, I'll be competing this weekend at California Star Ball and I'll see all my old pals from other studios and areas, but I'll come away from there with more friends! I love it!!!
I was fishing from the pier in Cayucos California one afternoon when a young lady and a little boy came and stood near me. The little boy got SO excited each time I pulled a fish out of the water! He must have been about 4 years old. I asked the young lady, who turned out to be a young widow, if it would be okay if the little boy fished. She said "of course." So for the next 3 hours I taught the little boy how to fish. As they turned to leave, she handed me a piece of paper with her phone # on it and looked me right in the eye and said "please, please call me tonight." I hadnt remarried yet so i called her. She invited me over so she could make dinner for me. After dinner and after putting the little boy to bed she said that she had never met a man who was as patient as i was with kids and she wanted to give me a special thank you. In bed she asked that I be patient with her as I was her first lover since her husband died. I'm glad I could help!
