“First of all, sit down. You’re making me nervous with all this pacing.” I comply quickly because I know the advice is worth it.

“Now, what have you done to let her know that you like her, other than sex?”

“Uh, well, I…”

“That’s what I thought. This woman has no reason to believe that you want her for more than that. You have a reputation of being a womanizer, and you know it. You’re going to have to work at this and come up with something that makes her want to give you a chance.”

I flop back in the chair and groan. “Why does it have to be so difficult?”

“Because things that are worth having don’t come easy. You’re going to have to prove to her that you are sincere. How are you going to do that?”

“That’s why I’m here talking to you. Tell me what to do, please,” I beg.

“No, I won’t do that. You have to figure this out on your own,” she says firmly. “I will give you one suggestion; talk to her friends. I assume that they’re here for the wedding. Ask them what she likes or what they think will work. If you can win over the friends, you will stand a much better chance of getting her to take another look at you.”

I nod and start thinking. Becca’s on her honeymoon so I won’t bother her, but maybe I can talk with Stephanie on the flight home.

“Okay, oh, wise one. I’ll try talking to her friends. Anything else I should know?”

Anne leans forward and smiles. “Nope. That should do it. You’re going to be fine, Jude, I promise. Just remember that you’re worth it and that you’re a good man. You have to believe that if you want her to as well.”

“You’re right. That’s easier said than done, but I’ll try. I promise.”

“Good. Now, get out of here and go find your woman. Let me know how things go, and next time you’re in town come see me, okay?” She stands and I walk around her desk. I pick her up in a hug and squeeze tight.

“Thanks for being here for me. I miss my mom so much sometimes, and you help ease that ache, you know?” I whisper in her ear.

“I miss her too, and I’m here for you always. Now put me down.” We both laugh I set her back on her feet and kiss the top of her head.

“Tell Clarence that I said goodbye,” I say walking out the door.

“I will, now get. I have work to do,” she says with a smile and a wink.

I feel ten times lighter walking back up the hall. I know what I need to do, and the flight will allow me a few hours of uninterrupted time with Stephanie to get it all figured out.
