Mom Meets Son-In-Law, Recognizes Him From The Past And Confesses
When she introduced her husband-to-be, her mother began to act strangely. She began to worry that her mom didn’t approve — she hardly said a word to him throughout the entire dinner. She was usually so warm and inviting — this wasn’t like her at all.
But, little did Heidi know, her mother and her fiancé already knew each other. In fact, they went way back.
Mom And Me
Heidi and her mom Kay were over the moon when she was accepted into the UK’s University of Newcastle to study economics and management. They had become somewhat estranged from extended family so spent a lot of time together – making the move hard on both of them.
After a year in a shared apartment, Heidi felt comfortable enough to move into her own studio. Then, one day, she received a message from a stranger on Facebook begging for help.
Which Button?
Ed Savitt – a psychology and business student – had moved into Heidi’s previous apartment, but was struggling with the washing machine. He said he’d found her name on some mail and decided to look her up for help.
“He Facebooked me asking how the washing machine worked, and I let him know… basically because he was hot.” That was the last they spoke – until she felt someone staring at her from across the bar while out with friends one night.
Chance Meeting
“We just spotted each other,” said Heidi, having recognized him from his Facebook profile. “I thought he was gorgeous; he was actually amazing. All I can remember thinking is, ‘Wow, he is hot.’” The pair got chatting and soon went on their first date at a pizza restaurant.
But there was something about Ed that Heidi really should have known.
Hitting It Off
Heidi learned that the new tenant of her old apartment was also attending Newcastle University to study business and psychology. They both had plans for their individual futures but on this particular day, after Heidi caught Ed’s eye, their entire college experience changed.
Heidi would later say that the two “hit it off pretty much instantly.” They became much closer and managed to stay together throughout college. The college sweethearts thought they knew everything about each other, but they would soon find out they were wrong.
