I thought this would be fun...
I loved hearing your UFC fighter stories, so it could be even more interesting to hear our real life brushes ....
Here is my story...
Back in my wild, crazy, single days I actually had a nice little relationship with Barack Obama''s PR advisor while he was running for Senate here in IL (so, this was years ago--and well before he ran for President and won).
What a crazy life that was, even for the little bit of time it lasted.
First of all, I should say that this boyfriend of mine at the time was much older than I was by about 20 years. When I met him, he lied and told me he was in his 30''s...which I debunked after googling him and finding out that when I was in elementary school, he was a Goverment offical working with enviromental issues. He wasn''t very attractive...but he was so smart, the things he knew were amazing, and he never talked down to anyone---he would talk to an important politcal figure the same way he''d talk to my beauty school friends. He was extremely successful, very wealthy, and lonely...we actually dated thru the holiday''s and he gave me a lovely Coach bag, and also gave lovely gifts to my friends that year too and hosted a great lunch for all of us at the Clubhouse in Oakbrook Illinois which is a pretty upscale place for a bunch of 21 year olds. If I were to call him, he''d drop everything to get to me--I remember one time calling him a downtown Chicago hotel where I was staying for a work party, and he was at political benefit dinner and he left to come party with me.
Through this guy, I actually spent time with Senator Obama (now President Obama) socially, and he was such a nice man the handful of times I was around him. I look back now and genuinely feel like that was an experience I was to young to fully appreciate. This guy would invite me to Washington with him for different benefits or dinners, and I would actually turn him down--l totally didn''t get what an amazing experience I was in the middle of.
Of course, the relationship eventually failed---he had lied to me thinking I wouldn''t like him if I knew the truth, and that absoutely set an expiration date for our fling--but, the places I was able to go, the things I was able to do, the people I was blessed to meet...
My ex actually now handles some of the PR for Google (ironically) and still works with Obama which is very awesome.
