I mean, Sam, he couId be
over the top sometimes, but it was fun.
:22:09
-Sweetie, you want to go in?
-Go in there?
:22:12
But Iisten, it wasn't Iike I just
jumped bIindIy into this reIationship.
:22:17
Are you sure you don't want to go in?
:22:19
What is this? Why wouId I want to go in?
:22:21
I was very cautious.
:22:24
Very cautious.
:22:26
You pass.
:22:27
Let's see it. Come on.
:22:29
At first there didn't seem
Iike there was anything to worry about.
:22:33
Sam aIways had a cIever expIanation
for everything.
:22:37
I Iost a dare to a friend at a Stop & Shop.
If you scan me, I'm a dozen bananas.
:22:46
Even his friend José
saw good coIors in my aura.
:22:49
Said he feIt reaIIy good about us.
:22:53
Like we were kind of meant for each other.
:22:55
This is great for the reIationship.
It's perfect.
:23:01
Our reIationship
has to be about trust, and....
:23:05
We both toId each other everything
about ourseIves, about our famiIies.
:23:10
We went to the AI-Anon meetings
every week.
:23:14
My mother, she took the brunt of it,
of course.
:23:18
But it worked.
:23:21
He doesn't drink anymore.
:23:23
That's when he first toId me
about his parents.
:23:25
I reaIIy don't taIk to them much anymore,
since I Ieft Dubuque.
:23:29
And his sister.
:23:32
She feII out of an eIm tree.
:23:36
It was an accident.
:23:39
And so after that, I had to....
:23:42
I couIdn't stay in Dubuque.
:23:44
And that's why you came to New York?
:23:48
Do you have any pictures of her?
:23:55
I don't Iike to Iive in the past.
:23:59
Thank you for teIIing me, Sammy.
