0:00:02.000 --> 0:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Hey It's Delilah. Thank you for stopping by. I have

0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:09.480
<v Speaker 1>put together some of my favorite radio moments here to

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:20.280
<v Speaker 1>share with you on our daily podcast through Hey It's Delilah. Today,

0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm sharing some of the greatest calls I've taken recently.

0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>We're going to weave them together and share them with

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>you on Hey It's Delilah.

0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Lynn Welcome.

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 1>What can I do to make your night more special

0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:37.400
<v Speaker 1>tonight on the Delilah Show.

0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, I would like for you to play a song

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 3>from my wife. We met on the large college campus

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:49.960
<v Speaker 3>in the South through fraternity sorority stuff and got married

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:53.159
<v Speaker 3>two years later. We're still married, and I think the

0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:59.280
<v Speaker 3>thing that's kept us together over the years We've only

0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 3>been married five years only, but I think it's been

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 3>a combination of trust and adaptability. We've adapted to new situations.

0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 3>We've lived in the North, in the South, and just

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:14.480
<v Speaker 3>still going strong.

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>So let me ask you this, Lynn, she was a

0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:20.280
<v Speaker 1>sorority girl. Did she get the ring by spring?

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? I'm going to say it this way. Neither one

0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 3>of us really were worried about getting married, and then

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 3>then we met each other and it was like almost

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:35.120
<v Speaker 3>love at first sight and it worked. It's worked well.

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:39.000
<v Speaker 3>If we kept together for fifty five years after being married?

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>What is your wife's name?

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:46.679
<v Speaker 1>And and it was almost love at first sight. Who

0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:50.560
<v Speaker 1>noticed the other one first? Did she make eyes at you?

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Or were you checking her out first?

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 3>I think it was more of me checking her out?

0:01:56.440 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 3>But she by the end of the first six months

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 3>that we were together. It was pretty well solidly attached

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:10.639
<v Speaker 3>at the time, and her mother wanted us to get

0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:14.600
<v Speaker 3>a ring it at Christmas that year. We didn't get

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 3>that until the next year. And we've enjoyed lots of

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 3>good things together. We've raised two kids there in their

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:30.600
<v Speaker 3>forties right now. Got a great grandkid actually now, so

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm a great grandparent. Became that on Saint Patrick's Day

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 3>this year.

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, let me play a song for you two that

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:41.600
<v Speaker 1>are fifty five years and going strong. Here's to another

0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 1>fifty five. Okay, amen, thank you, thank you, thank.

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:48.280
<v Speaker 2>You for calling. Thank you for letting me be a

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:49.440
<v Speaker 2>part of your love story.

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Thank you. Love like.

0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Hi, Allison, This is Delilah. Can I do for you?

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 4>Hi, Delilah, I was just calling to maybe get some advice.

0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh, do we have a Delilah dilemma?

0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:17.079
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it's it's a happy dilemma. I suppose this uh guy, Travis,

0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 4>we've been friends. I met him last year through a

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.080
<v Speaker 4>mutual friend, and we had a lot in common, and

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 4>he just became a really great friend. And I think

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 4>he confessed to me, you know, that he liked me,

0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 4>and at the time, I just didn't return the feelings.

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 4>I you know, I just wanted to be friends and

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:40.040
<v Speaker 4>I kind of liked another guy. And we've over the year,

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 4>you know, we've he's liked other people, and I liked

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 4>other people. And but now I've I've just kind of

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.240
<v Speaker 4>come to the realization that, you know, this guy is

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.560
<v Speaker 4>a great guy, and he's just got a great spirit,

0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 4>and we have a lot in common. And and but

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm scared that maybe he's already you know, I'm scared

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:02.440
<v Speaker 4>he's settled that you know, hey, we're just going to

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 4>be friends.

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:04.680
<v Speaker 2>How old are you.

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm twenty three, So basically you're begging for a second chance.

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah I am, Yeah, I am.

0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying I was a big knucklehead. I wasn't quite

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 1>over somebody else, and so I pushed him to the side.

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 2>I kicked him to the curb. And now I'm going,

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Wait a minute, what was I thinking?

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.800
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's just the feelings weren't there, and now

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:29.640
<v Speaker 4>the more they are, feelings are here.

0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Now you suddenly noticed that, Oh my gosh, she's so cute. Yes, ma'am,

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I will play a song for you.

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:40.279
<v Speaker 4>Thank you.

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 1>You have a good night. Hi, Dave, thank you for

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.359
<v Speaker 1>calling Hello. What can I do for you? This evening?

0:04:56.720 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 5>I wanted to send a song out to an girlfriend,

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.200
<v Speaker 5>and I wanted to tell her that I'm sorry. We

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 5>had dated for about three years and I had to

0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:09.360
<v Speaker 5>move here about a year ago to be near her.

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:12.760
<v Speaker 5>And in that year some things changed and I wanted more.

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 5>And I couldn't realize at the time that she was

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.719
<v Speaker 5>giving me everything that she could give me. She's a

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:20.320
<v Speaker 5>single parent, and I couldn't see that I had everything

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.880
<v Speaker 5>I needed. I was so busy looking for what I

0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 5>wanted it I couldn't see that I had everything I needed.

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 5>And I just walked out of her life. She was

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:27.839
<v Speaker 5>waiting for me to call, I guess, and I was

0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.480
<v Speaker 5>waiting for her to call, and we just never spoke again.

0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 5>And then about two months ago, I realized, you know,

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:35.680
<v Speaker 5>just how much I missed her and how much I

0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:38.039
<v Speaker 5>wanted her back, and I tried to contact her, and

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 5>we did. We talked a couple of times. But since

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 5>she's dating someone else and she's moved on, and she

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 5>says that she's forgiven me. But I just you know,

0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:47.800
<v Speaker 5>I love her and I miss her, and I just

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 5>wanted to know that if anything in her life ever changes,

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:51.719
<v Speaker 5>you know, I'm here.

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.600
<v Speaker 2>How long did you go without talking to her?

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 5>About six months?

0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and you think that this woman should give you

0:05:59.040 --> 0:05:59.800
<v Speaker 2>another chance?

0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:01.239
<v Speaker 5>I'm prayerful anyway.

0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm glad you're prayerful. But I would never, ever.

0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.040
<v Speaker 1>In a million years, if a guy broke my heart

0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>that bad and was gone that long everything that he

0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't do it. I'd be scared to death that the

0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>next time he got upset, he'd be hit the door

0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and go.

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Running and not come back.

0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 5>I deserve that.

0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:18.279
<v Speaker 1>What can you say or what can you tell me

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 1>that would make her think that you wouldn't do that.

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 5>I know in my heart that we should be together,

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.240
<v Speaker 5>and I know that I made a terrible mistake. And

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.040
<v Speaker 5>all I could do is just ask her to look

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:30.479
<v Speaker 5>inside what we had and you know, find it in

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.559
<v Speaker 5>her heart to hopefully you give me a second chance.

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.040
<v Speaker 2>Tarin, Hi, welcome to the Delilah Show.

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 6>Hi, Delilah.

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 2>So I hear congratulations are in order?

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:48.479
<v Speaker 6>Yes, I hope.

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 2>So tell me what you're celebrating.

0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.599
<v Speaker 6>Well, I'm going to be graduating from nursing school in

0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:59.120
<v Speaker 6>four and a half months. I have to think my wonderful,

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:04.039
<v Speaker 6>amazing and supportive husband, because without him, I would not

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.920
<v Speaker 6>be where I am today. His name is Stephen.

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.520
<v Speaker 1>And how many times did you tell Stephen, Honey, I

0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 1>can't because I have to study tonight. I can't go there.

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:16.040
<v Speaker 1>I got homework to Stephen.

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. I can't even clean that.

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't even get the dishes washed because I got

0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 1>homework to do.

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:23.560
<v Speaker 6>I think every single day.

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:27.000
<v Speaker 2>And he never complained, not once.

0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 6>And I have children from another marriage, and he has

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.320
<v Speaker 6>stepped in and he takes them to all of their

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 6>extracurricular activities and he's always there helping with their homework.

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:41.960
<v Speaker 6>He's just wonderful. And the best part is that he

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 6>has allowed me to quit my job after I was

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 6>there for fifteen years, so that I could strictly focus

0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:53.440
<v Speaker 6>on school because the material is just getting progressively more

0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:57.400
<v Speaker 6>difficult and I really needed to focus and he just

0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 6>has taken over the signing answers and helping around the house,

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:04.520
<v Speaker 6>and he has just done everything for me.

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.080
<v Speaker 2>And where did you meet Saint Stephen?

0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:13.960
<v Speaker 6>I imagine that Luke actually, Wow. Yes, we've been fun for

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 6>fifteen years and we just got married two years ago.

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I will play a wonderful song for you for him.

0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Congratulations on making it through nursing school. I know that

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:29.280
<v Speaker 1>is quite the accomplishment. I have a couple of friends

0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:33.640
<v Speaker 1>that man, they just takes everything. It takes all your energy.

0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 1>So I'm so proud of you.

<v Speaker 6>Thank you so much. I'm so excited about my new

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.960
<v Speaker 6>career and just moving forward with my life. It's going

0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 6>to be wonderful.
