One night a dear friend of mine asked me to go to the Saddle Rack with her since she was taking line dance classes. It was a chance to dance, and I said “yes!” Anthony was at the Saddle Rack the same night for a friend’s birthday. We were both there with separate groups and ended up meeting because of a mutual connection. It was a fun night filled with laughter and dancing. When Anthony walked us to the car, he asked me for my phone number. I actually left my phone in LA a few weeks before and when I told him I didn’t have a phone, he said, “Wow, you could have just said “no!” I suggested he invite me on Facebook, and when I gave him my unusual and long last name, he thought I was making it up : ). He still added me and messaged me the next day, complimenting me on my South African dance moves. We went on our first date the next weekend in San Francisco.
