You Have A Beautiful Face

So, when I was working out today I ended up talking to an 86 year-old man for a good 20 minutes. I was wearing a PENN football t-shirt and he approached me asking if I played football. I kind of looked at him weird because I didn't understand why he would think a girl would be playing college football or at least why would I. I told him my brother coached football for PENN and I guess by me responding him he felt we could have a conversation for the next 20 minutes. He was a very nice guy and told me how he had three daughters and 6 grandchildren. He has been married for 50 years and use to be a divorce lawyer. I told him of my parents and where I worked and how I moved out here from Colorado. He was old so he must have asked me the same question 4 times, but I didn't mind. He kept telling me that he couldn't understand why I wasn't married or at least had a boyfriend. He said,"If I was 50 years younger I would ask you on a date. You have a beautiful face." I smiled and wondered to myself, "How come only old men tell me this?....HAHAHAHA!!" He had an interesting life and even if he didn't remember what my life was all about one bit that was okay because I remembered his.
