(I know you say ladies only and the guys come like bees to honey)

My Mom came down to visit me the week before. She hadn't flown in 15 years, so despite standing at the counter at Southwest, 15 feet from the gate, she missed her flight thinking she had to check in. They re-booked her for free on the next flight.

My Mom is not the chatty Cathy type, but she ends up sitting next to a guy that talks to her the whole flight ... time flies for both of them. They're still talking when I pick her up outside of security. He introduces himself, and despite not caring for my step-father, I got the vibe that he wanted to exchange numbers, so I usher her away knowing that could be bad news. She doesn't protest during or after.

She lost an earring at some point on the trip, but doesn't remember when or where.

Today, two weeks later, she gets a call from Southwest saying that a gentleman found an earring and thinks it belonged to one of his seatmate's and he'd like to return it and giving his number for her to call. Trying to figure out if it was him, she asked if he left a name and the Southwest person said no. Although she lost an earring, she wonders why he didn't say something when we departed ... she also wonders how he even got it.

We both think he thought of a creative way to find out who she is to contact her. She isn't calling him as it was a cheap earring anyway.

We both can't help but wondering if she is missing out on something that was meant to be. She missed her flight when she shouldn't have, got seated next to another 64 year old that she got along famously with and now he's trying to reach out to her.

She says she'll just take it as a feather in her cap since she her self-esteem left years ago ... I say that is best, but I really wonder... should she call him? I can tell that if she wasn't married, she would have called him... but she respects her marriage.

Meanwhile, she's telling me this story on the phone from her bedroom while her husband is in the living room watching Monday Night Football and paying her no mind.

Either way, Southwest gets a fucking A+ for customer service!

To the tl;dr folks, suck my dick...
