Trying to Court Miss Galaxy: A Love Story

By Andy Stankowski

When Andy Stankowski started his first year in law school, he noticed a young lady working part-time in the law library. He thought she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
Her name was Eva Kadar and throughout Andy's three years at the school, he tried to chat Eva up, to no avail. She was a reserved and quiet individual who always had "other plans" when Andy tried to invite her out. He thought she was just shy and would eventually come around.
After graduating Andy kept in touch.
Andy invited Eva to join him to celebrate his birthday. She initially rejected his offer and only reluctantly changed her mind after he indicated that he was celebrating alone. She was in a charitable mood, but she had her limits. She refused to accept Andy's flowers or let him kiss her hand.
But Andy didn't give up and kept in touch, sending Eva greetings on her birthday and at Christmas.
Andy moved to Ottawa to pursue his career while Eva remained in Toronto and became a graphic artist.
Seven years after they first met Andy attended a conference in Toronto and invited Eva out to dinner. For the first time, she said yes.
Do dreams come true?
Andy's did.
Andy and Eva visited each other and a long-distance relationship blossomed. It did not take long for Andy to fall in love and think that he was the luckiest man on the planet.
He called Eva Miss Galaxy.
But Eva and Andy were different personality types. Despite his extroverted personality, Andy had always felt lonely and yearned to give and receive love and affection.
Eva was not shy, as Andy believed. She was an introvert with a different perspective on giving and receiving love and affection.
Opposites may attract, but do they have the stuff to stay together and make things work?
This is a story about Andy falling in love, going "Over the Moon", and suffering unbearable heartbreak. In the process of Andy's recovery and search for companionship, he tested the maxims "You only love once," and "A dog is a man's best friend."
