Transcripts
when did you first know that you were in
love with each other so I knew that I
was first in love it was like a year and
a half into our relationship and we were
visiting his family for the first time
that was like the moment that I was like
okay I definitely think I want to marry
this guy it was I guess what like a
month or two into our relationship she
got a job offer in Florida I didn't even
think like oh I guess we're not gonna be
together I just thought like alright
well I guess you have to do
long-distance I traveled
8350 six miles to visit her in South
Africa that's when I knew I said I'm
getting on a plane and I'm going to see
this for three days she was there for
three days I didn't know at the same
time very unfair I knew when I
understood that I had to make a decision
I was still like okay I got somebody
here somebody there like I had to make a
choice and I was like wow I don't want
to lose her I love her and I don't want
to lose her and that was what I knew we
went on a date in Hollywood and then we
were about to go home in the car and
then he just blurted out that he loved
me I was so embarrassed that I ran out
of the club but you started crying for I
did and I got there for like 5-10
minutes wondering if he was ever gonna
come back and then he forced me not to
tell him that I loved him back and then
I had to tell I had to wait like two
weeks I said it first quite early on I
think that I knew because we were
long-distance for a long time and like I
just wanted to speak to him every day
any small moment I had I was running to
speak to her always everyone says oh
you'll just when you see it you'll know
and you go oh shut up but oh my like
there it was it was that it was that
clear
knew it made immediately yeah it took us
three days to say
okay we need to this is we need to
figure out a way that we're gonna be in
the same place I knew I was in love with
Antonio probably the week after I met
him yeah but I never just never told him
she would come by my by my mom place and
we would like sit down and watch like my
wife and kids and whole bunch of funny
shows and like it was like we're just
laughing at silly shows together and
that's when I was like yeah I could see
myself being with her for us Molly yeah
we were together in Florida and we had
kissed and that had happened and then we
went back our separate ways to where we
lived I lived in Colorado and she lived
in New York and I was talking to my
friend in Colorado and then she said if
you never see her again like how are you
gonna feel and then I was like obviously
terrible and then she's like okay so
imagine you could see her again but you
could never kiss her again how are you
gonna feel it she was like that's your
defining fact and I was like yeah oddly
enough our mutual friend Dan when I left
you that day and called him at the
airport
oh my god I kissed he goes why'd you
screw that is the best manner way I came
to an event that she was singing at and
I knew instantly I told somebody that I
was you know that I came to the event
with you know I'm gonna marry her and of
course you know people think that's a
joke but I mean that's actually how that
man's the truth nothing look the first
time I saw him I just thought like oh my
god he's so fine all of that and then I
did it it's like a magnet I only want to
hang out with him so I kind of like you
know had to drop everybody else off
because I just wanted to be with him all
the time he has so much in common and it
just seems so natural I think the first
time I knew I was in love with him is
when
I thought to myself when he's finished
with doing what he's doing he's gonna be
hungry
and I need to cook something for him so
and I was like whoa bro
after graduating college I end up going
back to Georgia to hang out with my mom
and figure out what I want to do next in
my life in I was there maybe two weeks
and the entire time I just kept thinking
about amber so I end up going back to
North Carolina and on the drive up that
way I was that's when it hit me is like
man I'm I'm really I think I loved her
when I was absolutely sure was when we
actually weren't together we had a two
years long-distance relationship when he
moved I actually pushed him forward to
to chase his dreams it would be much
easier for me to have him stay and say
don't go but I actually don't know you
go and I believe in you and I had no
doubt that would we would be together
she has a better day the coolest laugh
her laugh is very loud the very good
good juicy laughs so I got caught by her
laughs and then I stopped start to try
to talk to her and she wouldn't ever she
was kind of rude I mean it's in a cute
way
I drew a cute room so how I fell in love
we dated for a couple times maybe three
times and she kept breaking up with me
and I said you know I'm gonna be with
someone else and everything changed she
became later weight but you're talking
about when I fell in love you have to
talk about how you fell when that's when
I knew I was like that's it she's the
one okay actually I may be from the
beginning you I was in love from the
first day
cuz it was hard to get exactly well for
me I had to be in Los Angeles for work
and we spent the weekend in Malibu and I
thought I can't get enough of this fella
and we did everything there was to do in
Los Angeles we went to a baseball game
we did the beach we did Hollywood we did
and we did everything it was a great
weekend I think that's when I knew it's
a little sooner for me but that's great
it was pretty evident at the beginning
that I liked this girl a lot and it
hasn't relented it's pretty good
Susan walked by and I go wow and I saw
him with this big smile on his face so I
thought hmm and when he said to me look
I don't want to date anybody else I
don't have time or energy for it and I
only want to date you it was like oh
this is terrific how many guys are like
that you know this soon I think I kind
of knew for a long time I think I did
too actually but I remember when I was
in the eighth grade I told my mom that I
was gonna marry a man she I don't think
she was expecting it we were driving and
she kind of screeched to a stop but she
was like what at first I was living in
Arlington Virginia and would trek up to
Columbia Maryland to visit Jill and one
time I was really late because of
traffic and everything and I was really
worried about her response but she was
so understanding and everything and I
just started to think she's you were a
really special person so maybe maybe
after a few dates I think we were just
both kind of ready to find someone to
share our life with so we you know
things moved along pretty quickly well
you know we shared the same I guess
values the same family connections etc
and you know you know her mother was
born in Italy and my parents were
Italian so you know we thought well I
guess there's some connection here I
play a little football when I was in
high school
she would always cheerleader for the
other team then I decided that I'd
rather see a root for me then and the
other chain I just knew that I wanted to
see more of him and I was just drawing
more and more and more to him and I
don't want to cry about 4 months ago I
think I first noticed him and felt
something when I saw him walk into the
announcing class and here is this mmm
salt-and-pepper haired guy coming in
with a cane and I thought oh my god what
more was he in because I thought he was
a veteran and I later found out that he
was 19 and he had hurt his leg in touch
football pretty soon I you know five or
six weeks I would think in my case I
knew I was in love with him when I first
saw him and when he arrived at the
Israel motion picture studios looking
for a job but I was young I was 17
what did I know about love there were
you in love with me I don't think so
I can say that I was convinced
throughout the time that she was in the
army and I was in the states that we
were going to be married the five years
between the time we met and the time we
got married was I matured was which was
it was a good idea everybody likes you
easy to like sweet we were married
June of 1953 we met in May of 52 right
so I guess I looked ahead and it seemed
like we had a lot of interests in common
we enjoyed being together and we were
very much attracted to one another and
it seemed almost inevitable not to say
somewhere along that one-year stretch I
mean I think we got along quite well
from the beginning but you know this was
65 years ago pretty much and it's not
very easy to remember all the details of
exactly what you did or even what you
felt but it was not unusual then you
know to be married fairly young I was
married a month after my 20th birthday
and it seems terribly young and I think
people are getting married at 28 30 35
and they they are sort of fully formed
and I think we sort of grew up together
in some respects
