She starts with a story.
“I dated an overweight guy and wanted him to lose weight. It did not happen, but I married him and got drawn to the world of good food.
So, here’s a dish we devoured on our first date…”
I’d rejected the same rich guy, but ended up being overweight myself. There are weightier matters to think of, while dating a man.
