We had been dating about 6 months.
You know that early phase in a relationship… when you’re still getting to know each other, on your best behaviour, etc.
One night we were coming back from a dinner date and my stomach was starting to ache. I could feel some gas coming, and tried my hardest to hold everything in on the car ride home. It hurt really bad.
Then I came up with a genius idea. My plan was when I got out of the car, I would try to shut my door really loudly and release a small fart at the exact same time. I thought the door shutting would mask the sound, we would quickly walk away, and my date would never know. Genius plan!
Well, it didn’t quite work out that way. My timing was off, and I wasn’t expecting such a long and loud sound to come out of my body. To make things worse, the parking garage kind of echoed, providing a ‘surround sound’ experience.
I turned bright red with embarrassment. 😳
Despite this ungentlemanly act, that girl ended up marrying me 5 years later. And to this day, she likes to still tease me about that night… “Hey, remember when you farted in front of me for the first time?”
Just wanted to share a funny story to add some laughter to your day.
Have a good one,
– Joel
