A Modern Love Story
Daughter’s text to Dad: Daddy, I’m coming home to get married soon, so get your checkbook ready. LOL! As you know, I’m in Australia and he’s in the US. We met on a dating site, became friends on Facebook, and had long chats on WhatsApp. He proposed to me on Skype and now we’ve had a 2-month relationship through Viber. Dad, I need your blessing, good wishes, and a really big wedding. Lots of love, Lilly.
Dad’s reply: Dad’s reply: My dear Lilly, Like Wow! Really? Cool! Whatever… I suggest you two get married on Twitter, have fun on Tango, register for your stuff on Amazon, and pay for it all through PayPal. And when you get fed up with this new husband, sell him on eBay. Lots of love, Dad.
Dad, the Funnyman!
Dear Lilly,
Haha! You never cease to surprise me, my dear daughter. I can’t believe you’re getting married! My checkbook might need some warming up, but I’m ready for this new chapter in your life.
It’s amazing how love knows no boundaries nowadays. You and your soon-to-be-husband have truly embraced the digital age. From finding each other on a dating site to becoming Facebook buddies, and then sharing countless heartfelt conversations on WhatsApp, your journey has been unique. And who would have thought that Skype and Viber would play such crucial roles in your blossoming romance?
Now, onto the wedding plans! While traditional weddings have their charm, why not add a modern twist? How about tying the knot on Twitter? It’ll be a wedding like no other, with all your friends and followers instantly becoming part of your journey. You can even have fun on Tango, dancing to your favorite tunes as the virtual celebrations continue.
And when it comes to registering for gifts, why bother going to a physical store? Amazon is your one-stop-shop, where you can curate your dream wish list. Your friends and family can conveniently shop for them online and have them delivered straight to your doorstep.
Of course, we can’t forget about the financial side. PayPal makes it all so easy. From paying for the wedding expenses to managing your finances as a couple, it’s a secure and hassle-free option.
And hey, if things don’t work out with your new husband (fingers crossed they do!), you know what they say – one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. So, if you ever get fed up, you can always sell him on eBay. Just kidding, Lilly! But seriously, take your time, enjoy this journey, and remember that I’ll always be here for you with lots of love and support.
Your loving and funny Dad.
