Speaker 1 (00:32):
Hi, Valerie, what can I do for you tonight?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
So it's my first time calling. And I've been listening
to you for years since I was a little girl,
and you just always give the best advice. And I'm
going through a really hard time right now with me
and I live with my best friend and we have
like literally like I like the best friend I could
ever ask for. He just lost his job and we
(00:58):
just have them you know, last time, and his dad
just got diagnosed with cancer. Our faith has really been
toasted this year, but we've remained really strong to it all.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
And is this a boyfriend or are you living with
his family? What is the dynamics?
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Oh no, it's just me and my best friend. We
live together in an apartment.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Okay, so but you're not in a relationship. This is
your roommate. How old is he?
Speaker 4 (01:25):
He's thirty and how old are you? Twenty six?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
And he just lost his job, so now finances are weird.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yeah, it's just like all these things happen to you
at once, and it really, it really takes a toll
on you, and it can get.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Hard, especially when you're young and everything seems like it's
so uncertain.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
And I'm just like really sad, and I really wanted
like something uplifting, and you're very uplifting and that's why
I listened to you.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I will find an uplifting positive even though it looks
like my world is crashing down. Kind of song to
encourage you to hold on.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Okay, Yeah, And then.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
I just want to say one I thing through through
all of this. I cannot get through any of it
without my best friend. He's literally my rock and I'm
head and we hold each other up.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
God bless you, honey, Marcia.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Thank you for Colleen. What can I do for you?
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Well, I'd like for you to play a song for me,
But first I'd like to tell you a short run
down of my life. When I was twenty four, I
met this wonderful man and we dated for nine months
and from the day we dated. We first dated it
till the day we got married with nine months and
then later nine months later we had our son, and
(03:00):
five years ago I lost him to cancer.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
So, Marcia, you were married for how many years?
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Twenty three years and my last medicine to cancer. It
was it was a rough twenty three years because we
had a lot of illness. But if I had, you know,
it was wonderful twenty three years. I can look back
and I can smile more than I can frown. Go ahead,
And I thought that you never that kind of level.
(03:27):
I came around once in a lifetime and I never
expected to experience it again.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
And obviously, if you're saying I never expected to, you
must be experiencing it again.
Speaker 6 (03:37):
I am.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
You've fallen in love with who?
Speaker 6 (03:40):
His name is Kurt and he's originally from Norway. I
met him online on the internet. We started talking a
year ago February past and we met in person in May,
and we hadn't looked back. And he is just the
more wonderful person that anyone would ever want in their life.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And what song did you want to hear?
Speaker 6 (04:05):
If you could pick something. You're the queen of fatty
love songs and I just want to say I love
him today. He is the greatest.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Let me see what I can find for you.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Thanks so much, BOBBYE.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Honey, Hi Jennifer, welcome to the Delilah Show. You wanted
to tell me about your.
Speaker 7 (04:31):
Fiance, Yes, Antonio.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Tell me about Antonio.
Speaker 7 (04:37):
Antonio is such an amazing man. He is loving, caring, patient,
especially patient with me. I am the definition of a
type A personality and he is just there to always
help me relieve my stress and remind me that there
are more important things in life than you know, being
(04:57):
at work till ten o'clock at night or making s
I get straight a's in my master's program. And he's
just always there to give me a big hug and
release all that negative energy that I get built up
during the day. And he's been my fairy tale come
true and my dream come true. And it still has
not hit me that in five weeks we will be
husband and wife.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So this is the guy on the horse, the white horse.
He's your night in shining armor.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
Yeah, he was everything we met doing internships. My university
had an apartment building where it housed students from all
different universities, and as luck would have it. We were
placed right across the hall from each other. We started
talking and even though we were both extremely attracted to
each other, we kept that a secret and we never
got involved when we lived when we were interned, so
we went our separate ways. So he asked me for
(05:47):
my email address, and thank God for email, and I
started beating somebody else, and that person proposed to me,
and I said no. I just didn't feel like that
was the person that God had sent for me. The
month after I said no to that other proposal, I
get to an email from Antonio saying that he's home
to the summer doing an internship and he's downtown, and
(06:09):
I said, luck would have it. I was working downtown
and he asked me for lunch, to go to lunch,
and instead of playing hard to get I picked up
the phone instantly called him and said I'd love to
do lunch. We went out for lunch, found out that
we were both single, and we've been together ever since.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Hi, Kim, welcome. What can I do for you tonight?
Speaker 8 (06:32):
Well, I have a very special dedication I'd like to
make to my son and my daughter in law. They've
been married four years and they have a wonderful love
story to tell. They dated all drink junior high in
high school and dated until she was a senior, or well,
when she went to college and she decided she didn't
(06:54):
want to be tied to a boyfriend and she went
in just to study on her nursing. And so they
really never dated anybody else, and they never got over
each other. But two and a half years later they
got together and she started to go to bed that
night she started crying and she told her mom. She said, oh,
(07:15):
I love Mike. Her mom said, well, you need to
tell Mike. Don't tell me. And so they went down
to the factory where he works and put a note
on his window that said come to Emily's nine to
one one as soon as you get off work, and
they talked from midnight to seven am, and two weeks
later they were engaged.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
So her mother is the one that gave her the
wisdom to go you knucklehead.
Speaker 8 (07:40):
Yes, absolutely, And the funniest part was, I have daycare
in my home. And so he had a Harley Davidson
and he decided to sell it and buy her a diamond.
And so the little boy I was babysitting for went
home and asked us Daddy. He said, Daddy, went, does
get married mean? He said, well, what do you think
(08:02):
it means? And he said selling your Harley?
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Well, yeah, oftentimes it does.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
That's exactly what it means.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
And they now have a beautiful little son named Hunter
Michael and so I just like to dedicate a song
to Mike and Emily. She's a wonderful daughter in law
and I love them both.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
I so hope you have enjoyed these radio moments as
much as I enjoy bringing them to you. I'll share
more with you each weekday on Hey It's Delilah.
