27 Jennifers

What is it about a name that you find over time that it's a repeatable event laden thing in your life? My first crush, my lost virginity, the last person I slept with before I was with my wife, the first person I spent time with after my divorce, and now the person with whom I want to spend a lot of time...all the same first name. Or a variation of it.

I was going to mention my sweetheart of a cousin, but in the midst of the rest of the reference points, it might come off weird.

I'm getting this whole philosophy of "there are no coincidences", but come on. Was it that I've been searching for this name the whole of my life? This person, maybe? I don't know. But if this isn't it...I'm putting a moratorium on this name for a long time.

Oh, it's not Jennifer, for the record.
