Sounds more like a 3000 mile booty call if you ask me! Just do it woman. That's exactly the same story as how I met my Canadian wife in Ireland! back and forth a few times and then I took the leap. Just in time too.
yes fall for the virgin dream and have your heart shattered love,or just propose give him direct entry to yankee-land.what happens after that is up to you.
It sounds authentic enough. It , will be a reminder to some of us of our own lost love, one that never was able to be completely fulfilled for one reason or another. For most of us we will never know if that was for better or worse but it always stays with you, out of mind most times but brought back to memory with a certain song or picture or event. I hope the writer will find true love and happiness. I hope she will continue to write with feeling and sensitivity.
The comments about this story are brilliant! WAY more entertaining than the story itself : )
Far too much information! On the face of it: Kind of sad that she thinks her lust-filled 'annual service' may all be coming to an end. ~~~ Sadly,the airports are full of scenes she describes. I have seen many 'Isteach Amach ' (Arrivals Departures - Ir.Lit.'In-Out') horrors! One young man waiting for his girl held a big bunch of flowers and was getting a bit over-excited as the delayed fright Landed. When she finally appeared pushing a trolley laden with luggage covered by an enormous bunch of flowers! "Who are they from?" he stuttered, redfaced and sweating... " From John,of course" she said as she swept by him..../...Another case was a young woman climbing the stairs to the Amach (Out,remember) area when a young man ran to her screaming and begging her not to leave, he threw himself at her feet,grabbed her ankles and would not let go. He kept begging and screaming as several Security and Police officers forced him to loosen his grip. She walked calmly on leaving her heartbroken lover to the care of the airport police ..... Two true cases and far from the romantic notion of Ireland today. If Denise wants to write 'diddle-i-eye' stuff - and Cormack must sleep in the West sometime! - IC should commission her to go back off-season when she is not 'on heat', wearing a slight disguise and see what this Mammy's Boy gets up to the rest of the time! ~ Now that would make good reading! ~~~ I'll start it off for her: " I walked into the bar, stifling my panting breath,begging my heart to stop pounding and praying my yearning womanhood would not make me betray my mission. I expected to see him sitting alone and forlorn in a corner, sobbing gently and peeping furtively at a photo of me, but instead, what I saw was ......
Also, I don't tink the picture is of them and it doesn't look like an add for jeans to me. I think it was added for "affect". How many farmers do you know that have been seen/have time to walk along a beautiful trail like this post card piture :-)
I like this article. I think the author is genuine and not trying to be the next Nora Roberts. I think she is realizing that this “Love” will go no further. As for the visa, even though her Grandfather was an Irish Citizen, in the U.S., her Father/Mother would have to be or apply for an Irish citizenship before she could since she is second generation. I think she is just “voicing her love” for what may never be. Good article. Come on, we have all loved and lost.
u gotta be kiddin'.
I see my post of about 1/2 an hour ago has been taken off,I came back on to say that the fiance visa cost 500 dollars up front and did not guarantee the visa would be given either
This lad is staying with his mam, period. If the girl thinks she has him, she may think again, or have a long wait......da mammy is gonna live forever..like me...
The picture looks like an add for blue jeans.
I married an american woman,she had no irish ancestery at all we got a marriage visa in New York and married 3 months later in ireland this must be a tall story or someone is getting led up the garden path
This woman doesn't want to be there or she would have gotten a passport. She has an Irish grandparent, so what's standing in her way? Anyone in this situation needs to just do a teensy tiny bit of research to find the way to citizenship and thus no need for a card or anything else that might stand in her ways. Duh.
Jaaasus, I've found one to bate me in the BS category. Good woman yerself or maybe ye'r a man. Who knows.
Sounds like another bad Nora Roberts book. LOC
